Chapter and Conference Paper
As spatial locality leads to advantages of computation speed-up and sequence reuse in molecular computing, molecular walkers that exhibit localized reactions are of interest for implementing logic computations...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The development of DNA circuits capable of adaptive behavior is a key goal in DNA computing, as such systems would have potential applications in long-term monitoring and control of biological and chemical sys...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We propose an iterative approach to constructing regular shapes by self-assembly. Unlike previous approaches, which construct a shape in one go, our approach constructs a final shape by alternating the steps o...
Chapter and Conference Paper
DNA strand displacement gates can be used to emulate arbitrary chemical reactions, and a number of different schemes have been proposed to achieve this. Here we develop modular correctness proofs for strand di...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We propose a novel molecular computing approach based on reservoir computing. In reservoir computing, a dynamical core, called a reservoir, is perturbed with an external input signal while a readout layer maps th...

Chapter and Conference Paper
Learning and generalisation are fundamental behavioural traits of intelligent life. We present a synthetic biochemical circuit which can exhibit non-trivial learning and generalisation behaviours, which is a f...

Molecular spiders are nanoscale walkers made with DNA enzyme legs attached to a common body. They move over a surface of DNA substrates, cleaving them and leaving behind product DNA strands, which they are abl...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We propose a stochastic model for molecular transport at the nanoscale that describes the motion of two-dimensional molecular assemblies called multivalent random walkers (MVRWs). This walker model is an abstr...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We previously described a tic-tac-toe playing molecular auto- maton, MAYA-II, constructed from a molecular array of deoxyribozyme- based logic gates, that uses oligonucleotides as inputs and outputs. We are no...
