Cardinality Leap for Open-Ended Evolution: Theoretical Consideration and Demonstration by Hash Chemistry.

Paper summary

Argues that formation of higher-order entities expands the space available to evolution. Hash Chemistry illustrates the proposal using variable-size entities and a hash-based fitness evaluator, with continued appearance of new replicating combinations.

Relevance to the project

Relevant to associations and higher-level organization: measure whether combinations create new functional possibilities. Compare imposed grouping and evaluation rules with developed mechanisms.

Open-ended evolutionChemical reaction systemsEvolutionary transitions

Finite novelty growth does not prove indefinitely open-ended evolution.
