A New Artificial Life Formalization Model: A Worm with a Bayesian Brain
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper shows an application of Bayesian Programming to model a simple artificial life problem: that of a worm trying to live in a world full of poison. Any model of a real phenomenon is incomplete because there will always exist unknown, hidden variables that influence the phenomenon. To solve this problem we apply a new formalism, Bayesian programming, which has previously been used in autonomous robot programming. The proposed worm model has been used to train a population of worms using genetic algorithms. We will see the advantages of our method compared with a classical approach. Finally, we discuss the emergent behaviour patterns we observed in some of the worms and conclude by explaining the advantages of the applied method.

Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship Study on Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives as Antitubercular agents Using Artificial Neural Network and Multiple Linear Regression
Background and purpose: Nonlinear analysis methods for quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) studies better describe molecular behaviors, than linear analysis. Artificial neural networks are mathematical models and algorithms which imitate the information process and learning of human brain. Some S-alkyl derivatives of thiosemicarbazone are shown to be beneficial in prevention and...
متن کاملBayesian perspective over time
Thomas Bayes, the founder of Bayesian vision, entered the University of Edinburgh in 1719 to study logic and theology. Returning in 1722, he worked with his father in a small church. He also was a mathematician and in 1740 he made a novel discovery which he never published, but his friend Richard Price found it in his notes after his death in 1761, reedited it and published it. But until L...
متن کاملEstimation of Products Final Price Using Bayesian Analysis Generalized Poisson Model and Artificial Neural Networks
Estimating the final price of products is of great importance. For manufacturing companies proposing a final price is only possible after the design process over. These companies propose an approximate initial price of the required products to the customers for which some of time and money is required. Here using the existing data of already designed transformers and utilizing the bayesian anal...
متن کاملComparison of Artificial Neural Network, Decision Tree and Bayesian Network Models in Regional Flood Frequency Analysis using L-moments and Maximum Likelihood Methods in Karkheh and Karun Watersheds
Proper flood discharge forecasting is significant for the design of hydraulic structures, reducing the risk of failure, and minimizing downstream environmental damage. The objective of this study was to investigate the application of machine learning methods in Regional Flood Frequency Analysis (RFFA). To achieve this goal, 18 physiographic, climatic, lithological, and land use parameters were ...
متن کاملNeuro-ACT Cognitive Architecture Applications in Modeling Driver’s Steering Behavior in Turns
Cognitive Architectures (CAs) are the core of artificial cognitive systems. A CA is supposed to specify the human brain at a level of abstraction suitable for explaining how it achieves the functions of the mind. Over the years a number of distinct CAs have been proposed by different authors and their limitations and potentials were investigated. These CAs are usually classified as symbolic and...
