Abstract

Distill articles are interactive publications and do not include traditional abstracts. This summary was written for the ML Anthology. Demonstrates how differentiable neural cellular automata can learn to grow and regenerate complex patterns from a single cell, modeling morphogenesis as a differentiable optimization problem.
