Is evolution fundamentally creative?

چکیده
Categorizing, defining, and observing open-endedness are among the most important open research challenges in artificial life. As a step towards addressing these challenges, this paper highlights parallels between open-ended evolution (OEE) and the theory of computational creativity. Exposing this relationship may allow existing empirical tools for quantifying creativity to more clearly illuminate the hallmarks of OEE in artificial life systems.

A Multi-Disciplinary Survey of Biocomputing: 2. Systems and Evolutionary Levels, and Technological Applications∗
The second part of this survey examines biocomputing in intact multicellular organisms. The parallelism between creative problem solving and evolution is emphasized: both processes invoke heuristic searching and feature modularity prominently. Simonton’s chance-configuration theory of creative problem solving is recast in terms of pattern recognition and analyzed in terms of parallel and sequen...
متن کاملEvolution as Context-driven Actualization of Potential
While natural selection is often viewed as synonymous with evolution, it is widely felt to be inadequate as a theory of biological evolution; moreover, historically the concept of evolution has not been limited to biology. We propose an integrative framework for characterizing how entities evolve, in which evolution is viewed as a process of context-driven actualization of potential (CAP). Proc...

متن کاملOn fixed points of fundamentally nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces
We first obtain some properties of a fundamentally nonexpansive self-mapping on a nonempty subset of a Banach space and next show that if the Banach space is having the Opial condition, then the fixed points set of such a mapping with the convex range is nonempty. In particular, we establish that if the Banach space is uniformly convex, and the range of such a mapping is bounded, closed and con...

The adoption and use of digital forms of direct-to-consumer advertising (also known as “eDTCA”) is on the rise. At the same time, the universe of eDTCA is expanding, as technology on Internet-based platforms continues to evolve, from static websites, to social media, and nearly ubiquitous use of mobile devices. However, little is known about how this unique form of pharmaceutical marketing impa...
