    • Artificial Development and Evolution using Common Developmental Genomes 

      Antonakopoulos, Konstantinos (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:251, Doctoral thesis, 2017)
      Developmental biology seeks to understand how organisms are constructed. Development is a set of very complex processes involving a coded program as the organisms’ genome. This genome describes how to build the organism, ...
    • Audio Generation with Random Boolean Networks 

      Roland, Katrine (Master thesis, 2019)
      Komplekse systemer finnes i mange ulike former, både fra naturen og menneskeskapt. Selv om disse systemene kan utvise en veldig kompleks oppførsel, kan oppførselen være basert på veldig enkle regler. I naturen kan slike ...
