15 Fundamental modeling issues: How to specify Structure of the existence and interactions of state variables Structure meaning low Kolmogoroff complexity, via generative procedure Eg. Wuschel; auxin/pin1 multicellular reaction rules ; Ste5 reaction rules Dynamics of the existence and interactions of state variables Eg. auxin/pin1 phyllotaxis model, weak spring mechanics Eg. many rarely-occurring reactions

16 Relevant Theory: Semantic Maps for Dependency diagrams (DD s; prob. models) Graph automata (GAA s?) Dynamical grammars (DG s)

17 DD Link Types Link type BN and MRF links Index links ι (from index nodes) Interaction gating links γ Node existence, ε Constraint, δ Purpose Probabilistic models Replicate variables and interactions Gate an interaction based on other variables Gate all interactions of a node; finish vbl-structure system definition. Eg: parse tree. [From γ] Impose constraints on random variables and index values e.g. sphere; constraint nets d/a d/a γ

18 Graph Automata Boltzmann distributions E(G,x) with detailed-balance dynamics. Conjecture: a general form is: optionally: + Example: weak spring model Bhan and Mjolsness, Complexity 11(6), 2006

19 Weak spring mechanical model

20 A Modeling Language for Biological Development Dynamical Grammars formal language, eg.: A(x) B(y) + C(z) with ρ f (x, y, z) B(y) + C(z) A(x) with ρ r (y, z, x) x,y,z can be static indices and/or variables (new) Semantics: events & XDEs --> time evolution generators H; exp th Implementation: Plenum [Mjolsness and Yosiphon 2006] Generalizes Cellerator to multiscale dynamics, via various hybrids (ICSB math tutorial notes) 1-page reimplementation of weak spring tissue model with cell division parameters can include indices => index-matching rules

21 Plenum Example: Anabaena Prusinkiewicz et al. model G. Yosiphon, SISL, UCI

22 Summary Developmental examples Meristem maintenance model Phyllotaxis model (weak spring mechanics) Molecular complex models Core modeling issues Structure of state vbl existence & interaction Dynamics of state vbl existence & interaction Theory: Semantics for DD links: indexing, gating, existence Graph automata (no static indices) Dynamical grammars (no static indices)
