World Scientific Series on Nonlinear Science, Series A, Volume 57: A Nonlinear Dynamics Perspective of Wolfram’s New Kind of Science, Volume II

This novel book introduces cellular automata from a rigorous nonlinear dynamics perspective. It supplies the missing link between nonlinear differential and difference equations to discrete symbolic analysis. A surprisingly useful interpretations of cellular automata in terms of neural networks is also given. The book provides a scientifically sound and original analysis, and classifications of the empirical results presented in Wolfram’s monumental “New Kind of Science.”
