Neural Networks for Control of Artificial Life Form
Abstract An artificial life form under the control of a spiking neural network has been created in a chessboard environment which consists of 60*60 grids using Matlab GUI. The spiking neural network consists of 8 neurons simulated using Izhikevich model which combines the property of both …

Automating the Search for Artificial Life with Foundation Models
… promise to revolutionize many scientific fields. Artificial Life (ALife) has not yet integrated FMs, thus presenting a major opportunity for the field to alleviate the historical burden of relying chiefly on manual design and trial-anderror to discover the configurations of lifelike simulations. …

Design and Characterisation of a Novel Artificial Life System Incorporating Hierarchical Selection
In this thesis, a minimal artificial chemistry system is presented, which is inspired by the RNA World hypothesis and is loosely based on Holland's Learning Classier Systems. The Molecular Classier System (MCS) takes a bottom-up, individual-based approach to building artificial bio-chemical …
