Abstract

 The information processing and evolutionary capabilities of networks of decision making elements are strongly dependent on structural features. Weak interaction effects play an especially important role. The manner in which these are introduced controls the effect of mutation on the dynamics of the network. We report on a dual dynamics model which is being used to address this issue. The model combines discrete decision making features reflective of logical operations with arithmetic features that represent graded influences.
