Adaptable lymphocytes for artificial immune systems

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

The adaptable lymphocyte hypothesis is identified as a possible source of inspiration for artificial immune systems. Based on a number of qualitative investigations we identify some properties of a theoretical system (the tunable activation threshold model and excitability) that could be applicable in an engineering domain. An example is shown of how we could exploit these properties.
