Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Artificial Life Researchers in the subject of artificial life analyze systems that are related to natural life, its processes, and its evolution by employing simulations with computer models, robotics, and biochemistry. Artificial life is a subfield within the field of synthetic biology. Christopher Langton, a theoretical biologist from the United States, was the one who gave the field its name in 1986. In 1987, in Los Alamos, New Mexico, Langton arranged and hosted the very first symposium on the subject matter. There are three primary categories of artificial life, all of which get their names from the methods used to create them: soft, which comes from software; hard, which comes from hardware; and wet, which comes from biochemistry. Researchers who investigate traditional biology through the lens of artificial life do so by attempting to replicate parts of biological occurrences.

Book Artificial Chemistries

  • Author : Wolfgang Banzhaf
  • Publisher : MIT Press
  • Release : 2024-03-19
  • ISBN : 0262551527
  • Pages : 572 pages

Download or read book Artificial Chemistries written by Wolfgang Banzhaf and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2024-03-19 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introduction to the fundamental concepts of the emerging field of Artificial Chemistries, covering both theory and practical applications. The field of Artificial Life (ALife) is now firmly established in the scientific world, but it has yet to achieve one of its original goals: an understanding of the emergence of life on Earth. The new field of Artificial Chemistries draws from chemistry, biology, computer science, mathematics, and other disciplines to work toward that goal. For if, as it has been argued, life emerged from primitive, prebiotic forms of self-organization, then studying models of chemical reaction systems could bring ALife closer to understanding the origins of life. In Artificial Chemistries (ACs), the emphasis is on creating new interactions rather than new materials. The results can be found both in the virtual world, in certain multiagent systems, and in the physical world, in new (artificial) reaction systems. This book offers an introduction to the fundamental concepts of ACs, covering both theory and practical applications. After a general overview of the field and its methodology, the book reviews important aspects of biology, including basic mechanisms of evolution; discusses examples of ACs drawn from the literature; considers fundamental questions of how order can emerge, emphasizing the concept of chemical organization (a closed and self-maintaining set of chemicals); and surveys a range of applications, which include computing, systems modeling in biology, and synthetic life. An appendix provides a Python toolkit for implementing ACs.

  • Author : Christopher Langton
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2019-04-02
  • ISBN : 0429709005
  • Pages : 701 pages

Download or read book Artificial Life written by Christopher Langton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In September 1987, the first workshop on Artificial Life was held at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Jointly sponsored by the Center for Nonlinear Studies, the Santa Fe Institute, and Apple Computer Inc, the workshop brought together 160 computer scientists, biologists, physicists, anthropologists, and other assorted ""-ists,"" all of whom shared a common interest in the simulation and synthesis of living systems. During five intense days, we saw a wide variety of models of living systems, including mathematical models for the origin of life, self-reproducing automata, computer programs using the mechanisms of Darwinian evolution to produce co-adapted ecosystems, simulations of flocking birds and schooling fish, the growth and development of artificial plants, and much, much more The workshop itself grew out of my frustration with the fragmented nature of the literature on biological modeling and simulation. For years I had prowled around libraries, shifted through computer-search results, and haunted bookstores, trying to get an overview of a field which I sensed existed but which did not seem to have any coherence or unity. Instead, I literally kept stumbling over interesting work almost by accident, often published in obscure journals if published at all."

Book Art in the Age of Machine Learning

Download or read book Art in the Age of Machine Learning written by Sofian Audry and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of machine learning art and its practice in new media art and music. Over the past decade, an artistic movement has emerged that draws on machine learning as both inspiration and medium. In this book, transdisciplinary artist-researcher Sofian Audry examines artistic practices at the intersection of machine learning and new media art, providing conceptual tools and historical perspectives for new media artists, musicians, composers, writers, curators, and theorists. Audry looks at works from a broad range of practices, including new media installation, robotic art, visual art, electronic music and sound, and electronic literature, connecting machine learning art to such earlier artistic practices as cybernetics art, artificial life art, and evolutionary art. Machine learning underlies computational systems that are biologically inspired, statistically driven, agent-based networked entities that program themselves. Audry explains the fundamental design of machine learning algorithmic structures in terms accessible to the nonspecialist while framing these technologies within larger historical and conceptual spaces. Audry debunks myths about machine learning art, including the ideas that machine learning can create art without artists and that machine learning will soon bring about superhuman intelligence and creativity. Audry considers learning procedures, describing how artists hijack the training process by playing with evaluative functions; discusses trainable machines and models, explaining how different types of machine learning systems enable different kinds of artistic practices; and reviews the role of data in machine learning art, showing how artists use data as a raw material to steer learning systems and arguing that machine learning allows for novel forms of algorithmic remixes.

Book Artificial Life VII

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark A. Bedau
  • Publisher : MIT Press
  • Release : 2000-08-01
  • ISBN : 9780262522908
  • Pages : 584 pages

Download or read book Artificial Life VII written by Mark A. Bedau and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2000-08-01 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term "artificial life" describes research into synthetic systems that possess some of the essential properties of life. This interdisciplinary field includes biologists, computer scientists, physicists, chemists, geneticists, and others. Artificial life may be viewed as an attempt to understand high-level behavior from low-level rules—for example, how the simple interactions between ants and their environment lead to complex trail-following behavior. An understanding of such relationships in particular systems can suggest novel solutions to complex real-world problems such as disease prevention, stock-market prediction, and data mining on the Internet. Since their inception in 1987, the Artificial Life meetings have grown from small workshops to truly international conferences, reflecting the field's increasing appeal to researchers in all areas of science.
