Deterministic Computing Mechanism for Perfect Density Classification

The purpose of the present study is to search one-dimensional Cellular Automata (CA) rules which will solve the density classification task (DCT) perfectly. The mathematical analysis of number conserving functions over binary strings of length n gives an indication of its corresponding number conserving cellular automata rules (either uniform or non-uniform). The state transition diagrams (STDs) of number conserving CA rules have been analyzed where it has been found that these STDs can generate different DCT solutions. While studying the properties of STDs, an interesting classification of binary strings could be made where equal weight strings form a class and the cardinality of each class is same as the binomial coefficient nCk; n is the length and k is the weight of the binary string. Apart from STDs, other deterministic methods have been proposed to obtain the exact solution of DCT. All these exact solutions of DCT using different deterministic methods can be viewed as an improvement over the soft computing techniques used earlier to obtain approximate solutions.

Cellular Automata Rules and Linear Numbers

In this paper, linear Cellular Automta (CA) rules are recursively generated using a binary tree rooted at "0". Some mathematical results on linear as well as non-linear CA rules are derived. Integers associated with linear CA rules are defined as linear numbers and the properties of these linear numbers are studied.

Properties of Carry Value Transformation

The notion of Carry Value Transformation (CVT) is a model of Discrete Deterministic Dynamical System. In this paper, we have studied some interesting properties of CVT and proved that (1) the addition of any two non-negative integers is same as the sum of their CVT and XOR values. (2) While performing the repeated addition of CVT and XOR of two non-negative integers "a" and "b" (where a >= b), the number of iterations required to get either CVT=0 or XOR=0 is at most the length of "a" when both are expressed as binary strings. A similar process of addition of Modified Carry Value Transformation (MCVT) and XOR requires a maximum of two iterations for MCVT to be zero. (3) An equivalence relation is defined in the set (Z x Z) which divides the CV table into disjoint equivalence classes.

Theory of Rule 6 and its Application to Round Robin Tournament

In this paper we have used one 2 variable Boolean function called Rule 6 to define another beautiful transformation named as Extended Rule-6. Using this function we have explored the algebraic beauties and its application to an efficient Round Robin Tournament (RRT) routine for 2k (k is any natural number) number of teams. At the end, we have thrown some light towards any number of teams of the form nk where n, k are natural numbers.

Theory of Carry Value Transformation (CVT) and its Application in Fractal formation

In this paper the theory of Carry Value Transformation (CVT) is designed and developed on a pair of n-bit strings and is used to produce many interesting patterns. One of them is found to be a self-similar fractal whose dimension is same as the dimension of the Sierpinski triangle. Different construction procedures like L-system, Cellular Automata rule, Tilling for this fractal are obtained which signifies that like other tools CVT can also be used for the formation of self-similar fractals. It is shown that CVT can be used for the production of periodic as well as chaotic patterns. Also, the analytical and algebraic properties of CVT are discussed. The definition of CVT in two-dimension is slightly modified and its mathematical properties are highlighted. Finally, the extension of CVT and modified CVT (MCVT) are done in higher dimensions.

Solutions on 1D and 2D Density Classification Problem Using Programmable Cellular Automata

This paper presents solutions to Density Classification Task (DCT) using a variant of Cellular Automata (CA) called Programmable Cellular Automata (PCA). The translation property as well as the density preserving property of fundamental CA rules in 1D and 2D, and the advantage of PCA are embedded together to obtain the DCT solution. The advantage of PCA over standard CA is reported. A general 2D DCT of arbitrary shapes and sizes, its applicability and its solution using PCA is newly introduced.

Encompression Using Two-dimensional Cellular Automata Rules

In this paper, we analyze the algebraic structure of some null boundary as well as some periodic boundary 2-D Cellular Automata (CA) rules by introducing a new matrix multiplication operation using only AND, OR instead of most commonly used AND, EX-OR. This class includes any CA whose rule, when written as an algebra, is a finite Abelean cyclic group in case of periodic boundary and a finite commutative cyclic monoid in case of null boundary CA respectively. The concept of 1-D Multiple Attractor Cellular Automata (MACA) is extended to 2-D. Using the family of 2-D MACA and the finite Abelian cyclic group, an efficient encompression algorithm is proposed for binary images.

Theory and Applications of Two-dimensional, Null-boundary, Nine-Neighborhood, Cellular Automata Linear rules

This paper deals with the theory and application of 2-Dimensional, nine-neighborhood, null- boundary, uniform as well as hybrid Cellular Automata (2D CA) linear rules in image processing. These rules are classified into nine groups depending upon the number of neighboring cells influences the cell under consideration. All the Uniform rules have been found to be rendering multiple copies of a given image depending on the groups to which they belong where as Hybrid rules are also shown to be characterizing the phenomena of zooming in, zooming out, thickening and thinning of a given image. Further, using hybrid CA rules a new searching algorithm is developed called Sweepers algorithm which is found to be applicable to simulate many inter disciplinary research areas like migration of organisms towards a single point destination, Single Attractor and Multiple Attractor Cellular Automata Theory, Pattern Classification and Clustering Problem, Image compression, Encryption and Decryption problems, Density Classification problem etc.

Color Graphs: An Efficient Model For Two-Dimensional Cellular Automata Linear Rules

Two-dimensional nine neighbor hood rectangular Cellular Automata rules can be modeled using many different techniques like Rule matrices, State Transition Diagrams, Boolean functions, Algebraic Normal Form etc. In this paper, a new model is introduced using color graphs to model all the 512 linear rules. The graph theoretic properties therefore studied in this paper simplifies the analysis of all linear rules in comparison with other ways of its study.
