An artificial chemistry is a chemical-like system that usually consists of objects, called molecules, that interact according to rules resembling chemical reaction rules. Artificial chemistries are created and studied in order to understand fundamental properties of chemical systems, including prebiotic evolution, as well as for developing chemical computing systems. Artificial chemistry is a field within computer science wherein chemical reactions—often biochemical ones—are computer-simulated, yielding insights on evolution, self-assembly, and other biochemical phenomena. The field does not use actual chemicals, and should not be confused with either synthetic chemistry or computational chemistry. Rather, bits of information are used to represent the starting molecules, and the end products are examined along with the processes that led to them. The field originated in artificial life but has shown to be a versatile method with applications in many fields such as chemistry, economics, sociology and linguistics.

人工化学是一种类化学系统，通常由名为分子的主体组成，它们会根据类似化学反应的规则相互作用。人工化学的创立和研究是为了理解化学系统的基本性质，包括生命起源前的进化，以及开发化学计算系统。人工化学是计算机科学中的一个领域，其中的化学反应——通常是生化反应——是计算机模拟的，产生了关于进化、自组装和其他生化现象的洞见。该领域不使用实际的化学物质，不应与合成化学或计算化学混淆。更确切地说，将以一些信息代表起始分子，并检验反应终产物和产生它们过程。该领域起源于人工生命，但已被证明是一种多用途的方法，在化学、经济学、社会学和语言学等许多领域都有应用。

Formal definition

An artificial chemistry is defined in general as a triple (S,R,A). In some cases it is sufficient to define it as a tuple (S,I).

An artificial chemistry is defined in general as a triple (S,R,A). In some cases it is sufficient to define it as a tuple (S,I).

= = 形式定义 = = 人工化学一般定义为三元组 (S,R,A)。在某些情况下，将它定义为元组(S,I)就足够了。

• S is the set of possible molecules S={s₁...,s_n}, where n is the number of elements in the set, possibly infinite.
• R is a set of n-ary operations on the molecules in S, the reaction rules R={r₁...,r_n}. Each rule r_i is written like a chemical reaction a+b+c->a*+b*+c*. Note here that r_i are operators, as opposed to +.
• A is an algorithm describing how to apply the rules R to a subset P[math]\displaystyle{ \subset }[/math]S.
• I are the interaction rules of the molecules in S.

Artificial chemistries emerged as a sub-field of artificial life, in particular from strong artificial life. The idea behind this field was that if one wanted to build something alive, it had to be done by a combination of non-living entities. For instance, a cell is itself alive, and yet is a combination of non-living molecules. Artificial chemistry enlists, among others, researchers that believe in an extreme bottom-up approach to artificial life. In artificial life, bits of information were used to represent bacteria or members of a species, each of which moved, multiplied, or died in computer simulations. In artificial chemistry bits of information are used to represent starting molecules capable of reacting with one another. The field has pertained to artificial intelligence by virtue of the fact that, over billions of years, non-living matter evolved into primordial life forms which in turn evolved into intelligent life forms.

人工化学作为人工生命的一个子领域出现，特别是来自强大的人工生命。这个领域背后的想法是，如果一个人想要建造一个有生命的东西，必须由非生命实体的组合来完成。例如，一个细胞本身是有生命的，但却是非生命分子的组合。人工化学招募了一些研究人员，他们相信人工生命是一种极端的自下而上的方法。在人工生命中，比特信息被用来表示细菌或者物种的成员，在计算机模拟中，每个物种都移动、繁殖或者死亡。在人工化学中，信息片段被用来表示能够彼此反应的起始分子。该领域与人工智能有关，因为数十亿年来，非生命物质进化为原始生命形式，而原始生命形式又进化为智能生命形式。

The first reference about Artificial Chemistries come from a Technical paper written by John McCaskill . Walter Fontana working with Leo Buss then took up the work developing the AlChemy model . The model was presented at the second International Conference of Artificial Life. In his first papers he presented the concept of organization, as a set of molecules that is algebraically closed and self-maintaining. This concept was further developed by Dittrich and Speroni di Fenizio into a theory of chemical organizations .

Two main schools of artificial chemistries have been in Japan and Germany. In Japan the main researchers have been Takashi Ikegami , Hideaki Suzuki and Yasuhiro Suzuki . In Germany, it was Wolfgang Banzhaf, who, together with his students Peter Dittrich and Jens Ziegler, developed various artificial chemistry models. Their 2001 paper 'Artificial Chemistries - A Review' became a standard in the field. Jens Ziegler, as part of his PhD thesis, proved that an artificial chemistry could be used to control a small Khepera robot . Among other models, Peter Dittrich developed the Seceder model which is able to explain group formation in society through some simple rules. Since then he became a professor in Jena where he investigates artificial chemistries as a way to define a general theory of constructive dynamical systems.

Artificial Chemistries are often used in the study of protobiology, in trying to bridge the gap between chemistry and biology. A further motivation to study artificial chemistries is the interest in constructive dynamical systems. Yasuhiro Suzuki has modeled various systems such as membrane systems, signaling pathways (P53), ecosystems, and enzyme systems by using his method, abstract rewriting system on multisets (ARMS).

In the 1994 science-fiction novel Permutation City by Greg Egan, brain-scanned emulated humans known as Copies inhabit a simulated world which includes the Autoverse, an artificial life simulator based on a cellular automaton complex enough to represent the substratum of an artificial chemistry. Tiny environments are simulated in the Autoverse and filled with populations of a simple, designed lifeform, Autobacterium lamberti. The purpose of the Autoverse is to allow Copies to explore the life that had evolved there after it had been run on a significantly large segment of the simulated universe (referred to as "Planet Lambert").
