Completing and adapting models of biological processes

We present a learning-based method for model completion and adaptation, which is based on the combination of two approaches: 1) R2D2C, a technique for mechanically transforming system requirements via provably equivalent models to running code, and 2) automata learning-based model extrapolation. The intended impact of this new combination is to make model completion and adaptation accessible to experts of the field, like biologists or engineers. The principle is briefly illustrated by generating models of biological procedures concerning gene activities in the production of proteins, although the main application is going to concern autonomic systems for space exploration. 1st IFIP International Conference on Biologically Inspired Cooperative Computing - Biological Inspiration 1 Red de Universidades con Carreras en Informática (RedUNCI)
