Human keratinocytes and melanoma can stick together to form clusters after eight days in co-culture. As dynamic system concepts, one consider cluster formation as the attractor, cell seeding initial condition, density change over time a path within basin of attraction. Herein, Cellular Automata, which is class Agent-Based Models, Boolean Networks are discrete modeling methods used population dynamics such that running cellular automata backward reveals an underlying network terms attraction, also known global dynamics. Thus, we hypothesize estimate local agent-based model from attraction boolean network. Here, propose approach estimating these rules, consists comparing states each state transition reaching consensus among transitions belonging The objectives this study are: (1) infer co-culture growth curve; (2) rules models; (3) implement spatial simulations. binarization curve shows high four days; estimated were compatible with proliferation migration agreement literature, so had individual for survival death. Spatial exhibit higher neighborhoods where present; chance keratinocyte increases until fourth day, then decreases, probability substantially cells low capacity die free space those ones. Our suggests attractor induced mainly by increase survival. has potential offer valuable clues about microenvironmental interactions or configurations drive
