Abstract :
Artificial immune systems have taken much of their inspiration from theoretical models of immune processes, in particular the process of clonal selection in populations of B cells and T cells. Here we focus on a generic dynamical model for the interaction of cytokines with immune cells, which we refer to as an artificial cytokine network (ACN).
