The Dynamics of Associative Learning in an Evolved Situated Agent
نویسندگان
چکیده
Artificial agents controlled by dynamic recurrent node networks with fixed weights are evolved to search for food and associate it with one of two different temperatures depending on experience. The task requires either instrumental or classical conditioned responses to be learned. The paper extends previous work in this area by requiring that a situated agent be capable of re-learning during its lifetime. We analyse the best-evolved agent’s behaviour and explain in some depth how it arises from the dynamics of the coupled agent-environment system.

متن کاملOrganizational Learning and Knowledge Spillover in Innovation Networks: Agent-Based Approach (Extending SKIN Framework)
In knowledge-based economy, knowledge has a public good and non-rivalry nature. Firms build their own knowledge stock not only by means of internal R&D and collaboration with partners, but also by means of previously spilled over knowledge of other firms and public research laboratories (such as universities). Firms based on their absorptive capacity, and level of intra-industry and extra-indus...
متن کاملOptimal adaptive leader-follower consensus of linear multi-agent systems: Known and unknown dynamics
In this paper, the optimal adaptive leader-follower consensus of linear continuous time multi-agent systems is considered. The error dynamics of each player depends on its neighbors’ information. Detailed analysis of online optimal leader-follower consensus under known and unknown dynamics is presented. The introduced reinforcement learning-based algorithms learn online the approximate solution...

متن کاملThe Dynamics of Active Categorical Perception in an Evolved Model Agent
Notions of embodiment, situatedness, and dynamics are increasingly being debated in cognitive science. However, these debates are often carried out in the absence of concrete examples. In order to build intuition, this paper explores a model agent to illustrate how the perspective and tools of dynamical systems theory can be applied to the analysis of situated, embodied agents capable of minima...
