Basic Transitions of Physarum Polycephalum [PDF]
Annals of computer science and information systems, 2015 The main charter of this work is the organism Physarum polycephalum, in particular plasmodium, Physarum's vegetative phase. During this latter form, the organism is more active and moves searching for food. Plasmodium behaves like a giant amoeba, and more interestingly, its way of foraging can be interpreted as a computation.

PhysarumSoft - a Software Tool for Programming Physarum Machines and Simulating Physarum Games [PDF]
Annals of computer science and information systems, 2015 In the paper, we describe selected functionality of the current version of a new software tool, called PhysarumSoft, developed for programming Physarum machines and simulating Physarum games. The tool was designed for the Java platform. A Physarum machine is a biological computing device implemented in the plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum or ...

The capacity constraint physarum solver
Journal of Computational Science, 2022 Physarum polycephalum inspired algorithm (PPA), also known as the Physarum Solver, has attracted great attention. By modelling real-world problems into a graph with network flow and adopting proper equations to calculate the distance between the nodes in the graph, PPA could be used to solve system optimization problems or user equilibrium problems ...

A multidirectional modified Physarum solver for discrete decision making [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper, a bio-inspired algorithm able to incrementally grow decision graphs in multiple directions is presented. The heuristic draws inspiration from the behaviour of the slime mould Physarum Polycephalum.

On attraction of slime mould Physarum polycephalum to plants with sedative properties [PDF]
, 2011 A plasmodium of acellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a large single cell with many nuclei. Presented to a configuration of attracting and repelling stimuli a plasmodium optimizes its growth pattern and spans the attractants, while avoiding ...

Simulating Transport Networks With a
IEEE Access, 2019 Designing effective transport networks can be considered as one of the most debated problems in the area of computational intelligence. Some nature-inspired algorithms have shown excellent abilities in the adaptive network construction. In this aspect, a

Towards Physarum binary adders [PDF]
Biosystems, 2010 Plasmodium of \emph{Physarum polycephalum} is a single cell visible by unaided eye. The plasmodium's foraging behaviour is interpreted in terms of computation. Input data is a configuration of nutrients, result of computation is a network of plasmodium's cytoplasmic tubes spanning sources of nutrients.

A Physarum-Inspired Decision-Making Strategy for Multisource Task Searching of Mobile Robots
Complexity, 2020 In the real world, there are many different kinds of sources, such as light, sound, and gas, distributed randomly over an area. Source search can be carried out by robotic system in applications.
