Lenia
Lenia is a scientific research tool and computational framework for modeling, visualizing, and analyzing artificial life. It functions as a continuous cellular automata engine that simulates emergent biological patterns using continuous space-time grids and kernel-based convolutional dynamics.
The system leverages a GPU-accelerated simulation framework to perform parallel tensor computations and massive grid updates in real time. It includes hardware-accelerated 3D rendering to visualize high-dimensional cellular structures and their structural complexity.
The platform provides capabilities for computational biology research, including the tracking of growth rates and cycle periods to classify digital species. It supports the modeling of high-dimensional patterns and the serialization of cellular configurations into portable text formats for the exchange of life form data.
The simulation engine allows for the adjustment of mathematical functions and resolution settings, as well as the manual manipulation of simulation fields through adding, moving, rotating, and resizing cells.
