It felt like a thrilling detective story to be part of this project. Secluded archives, unexpected turns of fate, chasing hope in the darkest corners of history -- through many lands and WWI, WWII, and Soviet Revolution... I am excited that finally the story of Moses Schönfinkel, a genius Jewish-Ukrainian scientist and a fellow countryman, is coming to light. Odessa Mechnikov University, my alma mater, was his too.

It was fascinating to do some historic detective work on this project. Part II of unraveling the fate of a genius Jewish-Ukrainian scientist and fellow countryman, Moses Schönfinkel.

Do original research at the frontiers of science. Join a collection of students with a diverse range of scientific backgrounds to learn how to use the Wolfram Language to implement projects in their fields of interest.

Wolfram Community is a platform for questions and answers, idea sharing, and discussions about all of Wolfram technologies—including Mathematica, SystemModeler, Wolfram|Alpha, and all the rest. With time, not only do we envision uniting users across our technologies, but that the system will grow to provide additional features, including deeper integration with our products themselves, file sharing, and much more, offering a medium designed for creative collaboration.

Today's online documents are like yesterday's paper—flat, lifeless, inactive. Instead, CDF puts easy-to-author interactivity at its core, empowering readers to drive content and generate results live. Launched by the Wolfram Group, the CDF standard is a computation-powered knowledge container—as everyday as a document, but as interactive as an app. Adopting CDF gives ideas a broad communication pipeline—accelerating research, education, technical development, and progress.

Wolfram Blog: News and Ideas from Wolfram Research

A unique educational and career opportunity to learn and do projects at the frontiers of science, technology, and innovation. Learn how to apply Wolfram's unique approach to creating ideas and turning them into research, products, and companies.

Learn about Mathematica, SystemModeler, the Computable Document Format (CDF), and other Wolfram technologies. Wolfram Training courses include quick starts to cover the basics and in-depth looks at concepts and applications. Watch courses on demand according to your schedule or join live courses online, in a classroom, or at your organization.

Mathematica is renowned as the world's ultimate application for computations. But it's much more—it's the only development platform fully integrating computation into complete workflows, moving you seamlessly from initial ideas all the way to deployed individual or enterprise solutions.

Wolfram Demonstrations Project is an open-code resource that uses dynamic computation to illuminate concepts in science, technology, mathematics, art, finance, and a remarkable range of other fields.

In probabilistic cellular automata, the rule that specifies the probabilities for each color of the cell to be generated in a state are determined by the colors of its neighboring cells from the previous state. This implies that each time the cellular automata is run, a new distinct pattern will emerge. However, each probabilistic CA will have an overall pattern that can be determined after enough cells have been generated.

In probabilistic cellular automata, the rule that specifies the probabilities for each color of the cell to be generated in a state are determined by the colors of its neighboring cells from the previous state. This implies that each time the cellular automata is run, a new distinct pattern will emerge. However, each probabilistic CA will have an overall pattern that can be determined after enough cells have been generated.

The goal of this project is to investigate the directed percolation of probabilistic cellular automata from an initial state that results in a particular output pattern. Different methods of analysis will be tested to further understand how such systems behave and to isolate particular initial parameters that can replicate this specified goal output.This is known as the inverse problem, and could be related to machine learning in cellular automata, much like artificial neural networks.
