Development Learning and Evolution in Animats
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper successively describes the works of Boers and Kuiper Vaario Nol and Parisi Gruau and Dellaert and Beer which all evolve the developmental program of an arti cial nervous system The potentialities of these approaches for automatically devising a control architecture linking the perceptions and the actions of an animat are then discussed together with their possible contributions to the fundamental issue of assessing the adaptive values of development learning and evolution

Learning and Evolution in Populations of Backprop Networks
This paper reports an investigation of the relationship between learning and evolution in populations of backprop networks. The simulation environment, which has been used previously by Parisi, Nolfi and Cecconi (Parisi, Nolfi and Cecconi, 1991), consists of a two dimensional grid with a random sample of the vertices containing a reward for those animats that visit them. Each animat is a small ...
متن کاملEmerged Coupling of Motor Control and Morphological Development in Evolution of Multi-cellular Animats
A model for co-evolving behavior control and morphological development is presented in this paper. The development of the morphology starts with a single cell that is able to divide or die, which is controlled by a gene regulatory network. The cells are connected by springs and form the morphology of the grown individuals. The movements of animats are resulted from the shrinking and relaxation ...

Abstract This paper provides an overview of various research e orts that aim at designing adaptive animats i e synthetic animals able to survive in synthetic worlds The control architectures of these animats are either programmed by a human designer or more or less automatically determined by means of nature mimicking processes such as learning evolution and develop ment The paper concludes wit...
متن کاملAdaptive Development of Koncepts in Virtual Animats: Insights into the Development of Knowledge
As a part of our effort for studying the evolution and development of cognition, we present results derived from synthetic experimentations in a virtual laboratory where animats develop koncepts adaptively and ground their meaning through action. We introduce the term “koncept” to avoid confusions and ambiguity derived from the wide use of the word “concept”. We present the models which our ani...
