Previously most neural cellular automata existed only in simulation ... until now! My co-authors and I are super excited to announce our work on physical neural cellular automata for shape self-classification has been accepted into IROS 2022! youtube.com/watch?v=0TCOkE4k…

Physical Neural Cellular Automata for 2D Shape Classification

Physical Neural Cellular Automata for 2D Shape Classification

Materials with the ability to self-classify their own shape have the potential to advance a wide range of engineering applications and industries. Biological systems possess the ability not only...

Great teamwork by @khoribe3, @katt_walker, @rasmusbergpalm, and @SudhakaranShyam. This journal paper, now published in @GPEMthejournal link.springer.com/article/10…., extends our previous evolution-only work on soft robot damage recovery: xitter.cf/risi1979/status/135801…

We are happy to present "Regenerating Soft Robots through Neural Cellular Automata" w/ @khoribe3, @katt_walker The approach allows soft robots to regrow parts of their morphology when being damaged only based on local cell communication. PDF: arxiv.org/abs/2102.02579

Wanted to apply to this year's virtual creatures competition but thought you'd missed the deadline? Good news! The deadline is now extended until the 14th June! all the details you need in this link: sites.google.com/view/vcc202… Happy creating!

The 3rd of our 3 upcoming @GeccoConf pubs: @csgrasso10 shows that Neural Cellular Automata evolved to homeostat and be empowered* are better at homeostasis than NCAs evolved only to homeostat. *cells can influence other cells distant in space and time arxiv.org/abs/2205.06771

I'm super thrilled to see other researchers implement variants of our NCA that work on physical devices!! That's like a dream coming more and more true! Shout out to @katt_walker @rasmusbergpalm @kstoy73 and @risi1979 paper: arxiv.org/abs/2203.07548 (1/2)
