| contents | Cellular automata (CAs) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are closely related due to the local nature of information processing. The connection between these topics is beneficial to both related fields, for conceptual as well as practical reasons. Our contribution solidifies this connection in the case of non-uniform CAs (nuCAs), simulating a global update in the architecture of the Python package TensorFlow. Additionally, we demonstrate how the highly optimised out-of-the-box multiprocessing in TensorFlow offers interesting computational benefits, especially when simulating large numbers of nuCAs with many cells. |
