- Abstract: I describle the simple formulation of the Smooth Life model. The model is based on the original work of S. Rafler (arXiv:1111.1567) with simplified activation barriers. In this simplified version we don't need to implement any sigmoids as it was done in the original work. Therefore, the model is simpler to implement and less prone for errors.

Very nice video style! 5 min knowledge boost on Smooth life model!
Thanks
Nice!
Thx
That was very nice. I would love to see a more lengthy explanation with all the quirks and details. That would be unique on UA-cam
Good idea, I am thinking about it;)
That was a really nice introduction! I’ve seen a fair number of SmoothLife videos (yours included), but I hadn’t really investigated it before.
I had an idea and I’m curious if it’s ever been done before. What if the rules themselves propagated, and not just the states of being alive, dead or in between? Say for instance that one area of the simulation grid uses a slightly different activation formula. Then depending on some quality of the simulation, the area using the other formula either expands or contracts relative to the other formula.
Does that sound familiar in any way? Thanks!
This is neat idea, the only concern I have is that it'll add some more complexity and make it even less controlable than it is now. But, I'd give it a try, go on!
@@maciejmatyka Thanks for your encouragement and words of wisdom!
I was planning to that idea with my Gray-Scott simulation program, because I don’t seem to be getting anywhere with that everything else I’ve tried to use. I thought that by allowing many degrees of freedom that could let complexity emerge, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Realistically I know I should be hopeful about this idea either, but hope springs eternal I guess.
No matter what, keep up your stuff. It’s really cool to watch!
Can you have a similar complexity level with just one neighborhood?
That's a very good question
When you say you add life for the shown thresholds of m & n, how do you determine the value of life to add? Since the life value can be between 0 and 1 for any cell, do you just multiply it by some coefficient or add a constant?
hi, this is model parameter and it's multiplied by time anyway so you can adjust it. I've just looked into one of my codes and it this particular one it is 0.25
