Neuron Formation Simulator

Settings and Thresholds

• Mutation_threshold = (d)10 "Controlls the randomness of the nucleus for a mutation in the sector"
• Calculation_speed = (d)250 "Time sleep for the iteration interval (in ms)"
• Dendrite_formation_speed = (d)2 "Controlls the growth chance of the dendrite picking a free coordinate"
• Dendrite_formation_threshold = (d)0.97 "Controlls the energy loss percentage per dendrite grown"
• Nucleus_expansion = (d)True "Decides if simulation is allowed to expand exponentially"
• Branching = (d)False "Decides if the dendrites are branching"

Tempset

With defining a cell in the tempset, you are able to create starting cells.

[(x, y), structure_type, tribe, origin, energy]

[(int, int), char, str, int, double]

Structure types

Defines the part of the cell

N = Nucleus (Core)

D = Dendrite (Receiver)

T = Terminal (ConnectionPoint)

S = Soma (Cell-Body)

Tribe

Differentiates the branch of a dendrite

Tribe codex example: "FQ3C"

Origin

Distinguishes the individual neurons

Energy

Controlls the structure expansion
