Cellular learning automata (CLA) is a distributed computational model that is introduced recently. This model is combination of cellular automata (CA) and learning automata (LA) and is used in many applications such as image processing, channel assignment in cellular networks, VLSI placement, rumor diffusion and modeling of commerce networks, and obtained acceptable results in these applications. This model consists of computational units called cells and each cell has one or more learning automata. In each stage, each automaton chooses an action from its actions set and applies it to the environment. Each cell has some neighboring cells that constitute its local environment. The local rule...
