Homeostasis: From Living Creatures to Living Machines
The Problem: While many robots in industry and research have proven capable of operating in complex environments, most robots still fall well short of living creatures in their ability to deal with extreme variations in their environment. Living creatures, by contrast, will typically cope in any environment to the extent that their physical bodies allow. Living creatures never give up trying to...
متن کاملLaban Movement Analysis and Affective Movement Generation for Robots and Other Near-Living Creatures
This manuscript describes an approach, based on Laban Movement Analysis, to generate compact and informative representations of movement to facilitate affective movement recognition and generation for robots and other artificial embodiments. We hypothesize that Laban Movement Analysis, which is a comprehensive and systematic approach for describing movement, is an excellent candidate for derivi...
متن کاملEvading Predictors with Creatures
We continue the theory of evasion and prediction which was introduced by Blass and developed by Brendle, Shelah, and Laflamme. We prove that for arbitrary sufficiently different f, g ∈ ωω, it is consistent to have eg < ef , where ef is the evasion number of the space ∏ n<ω f(n). For this we apply a variant of Shelah’s “creature forcing”.
متن کاملViolence against animals and people: is aggression against living creatures generalized?
An association between childhood cruelty to animals and dangerous aggression against people at a later age could have important implications regarding early detection and treatment, preventive psychiatry, and a social ethic that encourages positive attitudes toward living creatures in general. Research reports in the literature are inconsistent and inconclusive regarding a possible relationship...
متن کاملCharacteristics of the non-smooth surface morphology of living creatures and its application in agricultural engineering
Contrasting with smoothness, non-smoothness occurs widely around the world. There are many typical non-smooth surface morphologies in living creatures. Non-smooth surfaces have some special functions during the evolution of living creatures. According to the traditional conception, the body surface is smoother, and the adhesion force is smaller. In many cases, the surfaces of some products or w...
