In the past there have been several approaches to use Learning Classifier Systems (LCS) as a tool for modelling the functioning of the immune system. In this paper we propose a modification of the classic LCS that can be used for modelling the Cognitive Immune System Theory introduced by I. Cohen. It has been pointed out before that this alternative view of the immune system and its agents provides promising functional perspectives to the field of artificial immune systems (AIS). The characteristic features of Cohen's theory, namely degeneracy of recognition and context of immune reactions, and how they can be realized in our modified LCS are described. Moreover, we introduce the representations of the immune agents, the interactions that take place among them and the applied evolutionary mechanisms. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
