🧬 ADNΣ — Mathematical Genome for Emergent Neural Intelligence
In LSARN, artificial life is not scripted — it is encoded. At the core of every agent lies a structure called ADNΣ (Sigma DNA), a fully procedural digital genome that defines morphology, cognition, emotion, memory, and behavior potential.
This system is inspired by real genetics, where not only traits, but also patterns, structures, and behaviors emerge from a compact, mathematically expressive sequence. As modern research shows, biological DNA encodes more than proteins — it hides equations, rhythms, and recursive logic (Futura Sciences, 2023). LSARN applies this same philosophy to artificial minds.
🧠 Genome as Cognitive Blueprint
Each ADNΣ instance is a compact, single-pass structure that governs:
Morphological traits: body size, mass, color spectrum, asymmetry factor, structural index.
Personality factors: aggressiveness, curiosity, sociability, circadian modulation, emotional sensitivity.
Vocal identity: pitch, voice type, and acoustic signature hash.
Species encoding: defining ranges of variability and constraints.
Lineage & parental hashes: for tracking genetic descent and mutations across generations.
🔬 Neurogenesis via Equation-Driven Mutation
The core mechanism behind brain formation in LSARN is deterministic weight synthesis:
wi=basei+sin(k⋅π⋅i+ϕ)⋅mutationRatew_i = \text{base}_i + \sin(k \cdot \pi \cdot i + \phi) \cdot \text{mutationRate}wi=basei+sin(k⋅π⋅i+ϕ)⋅mutationRate
Where:
ϕ\phiϕ is a phase-shifting genetic marker unique to the agent.
kkk is a frequency constant driving neural periodicity.
iii is the index of the synaptic weight.
mutationRate
modulates amplitude and plasticity.
This method avoids randomness in weight initialization and allows predictable, heritable neural structures, where a child brain can statistically resemble its parents, yet still diverge structurally in meaningful ways.
Each brain is composed of modular neural blocks (2 to 7 per agent), with independent input/hidden/output layers — enabling function-specific processing such as memory, emotion, vision, or motor control.
🧬 Inherited Symbolic Memory
Unlike traditional AIs, LSARN agents pass down episodic symbolic memory via ADNΣ buffers. Each memory is encoded as:
symbolCode
(ushort): an abstract representation (danger, sound, place…)strength
(float): the clarity or emotional weight of the memory
These are limited in number, ensuring a Darwinian selection of memory fragments through lineage.
🖼️ Visual Biocode: The Genome as Image
To ensure cross-platform portability, visualization, and archival of agents, ADNΣ can be losslessly encoded as a PNG texture. This “Visual Biocode” includes:
All ADNΣ fields (traits, modules, weights, symbols)
Encrypted via per-pixel RGBA encoding
Loadable and decodable back into a full neural agent
This mechanism mimics biological visualization of genomes, but in a format usable in a live Unity DOTS simulation.
🧪 Emergence Over Instruction
No agent in LSARN is hand-scripted. All behavior emerges from:
ADNΣ → modular neural networks
Environmental perception (raycasts, sounds, collisions…)
Dopamine-based reward modulation
Emotional feedback
Dream-based memory consolidation
The result: life-like agents with adaptive, reflexive, and sometimes unpredictable behaviors, grounded entirely in a synthetic but mathematically rigorous DNA system.
