Bayesian Cellular Automata/Evidence
Method evidence record

Bayesian Cellular Automata

Bayesian Cellular Automata (BCA) couples the local-rule spatial dynamics of classical cellular automata with Bayesian inference to learn or calibrate transition probabilities from observed data. Rather than fixing rules by hand, the analyst encodes prior knowledge about how cells change state and updates those beliefs with empirical evidence, producing a posterior distribution over rule parameters that drives principled uncertainty-aware simulation.
