Artistoo

Artistoo implements interactive Cellular Potts Model (CPM) simulations in JavaScript to simulate cell- and tissue-scale dynamics.

Key Features:

• Cellular Potts Model (CPM) implementation: Implements the Cellular Potts Model to simulate cell and tissue-scale behaviors.
• Interactive parameter control: Supports dynamic modification of model parameters with immediate updates to simulation state and visualization.
• Real-time visualization: Provides real-time visualization of simulations to observe emergent cellular and tissue dynamics.
• JavaScript performance: Implemented in JavaScript with performance comparable to C++ frameworks for interactive computation.

Scientific Applications:

• Modeling research: Enables testing of hypotheses and in silico exploration of complex cellular and tissue interactions using CPM.
• Education: Supports instructional use by allowing hands-on exploration of cellular processes through interactive simulations.
• Science communication: Facilitates dissemination of interactive simulation models for broader scientific communication and demonstration.

Methodology:

Implemented as a JavaScript library that encapsulates the principles of the Cellular Potts Model (CPM) and provides real-time parameter adjustment and visualization of simulations.
