Using an Artificial Physarum polycephalum Colony for Threshold Image Segmentation
Traditional artificial intelligence algorithms are prone to falling into local optima when solving threshold segmentation problems. Here, a novel artificial Physarum polycephalum colony algorithm is proposed to help us solve the difficult problem. First,

Diet and mitonuclear haplotype interactions affect growth rate in a slime mould
Trait expression in metazoans is strongly influenced by the balance of macronutrients (i.e. protein, carbohydrate and fat) in the diet. At the same time, an individual's genetic background seems to regulate the magnitude of phenotypic response to a ...

A Physarum-inspired approach to the Euclidean Steiner tree problem
This paper presents a novel biologically-inspired explore-and-fuse approach to solving a large array of problems. The inspiration comes from Physarum, a unicellular slime mold capable of solving the traveling salesman and Steiner tree problems.

A nonlinear model is constructed based on the BP neural network, with the geometric parameters of the runner as input and the water head or efficiency of the hydraulic turbine in the hydraulic turbine mode as output. Abstract The hydraulic turbine in turbine mode (TMHT) has significant advantages in residual energy recovery, but rapid optimization of ...

Mean Field Theory of Self‐Organizing Memristive Connectomes
A novel mean field theory is developed to study the electrical behavior of nanowire connectomes. This framework uncovers the collective dynamics of interconnected nanowires, shedding light on the system's overall behavior. By considering individual nanowire properties and interconnectivity, it offers a comprehensive understanding of the system's ...
