ABSTRACT:

There is substantial need and opportunity to bring artificial intelligence
(AI) to bear on the scalable modeling of complex biological systems. Both
symbolic AI in the form of computer algebra, and numerical AI in the form
of machine learning (ML) methods, should make major contributions to future
simulation capabilities that can improve our understanding of molecular,
cellular, developmental, and larger biological scales of organization.
Problems of scalability that can benefit from AI/ML arise along the related
axes of problem size (large number of dynamical variables and high
performance computing to simulate them), multigrid/multiscale numerical
methods, and heterogeneous multiscale biological processes. I will show
examples including ML for model reduction in reaction/diffusion models in
synapses, and computer algebra based modeling languages that can represent
some of the complexities of morphodynamics (the dynamics of form) in plant
developmental biology.
