Hardware companions?: what online AIBO discussion forums reveal about the human-robotic relationship
In this study, we investigated people's relationships with AIBO, a robotic pet, through 6,438 spontaneous postings in online AIBO discussion forums. Results showed that AIBO ...

Evolving symmetric and modular neural networks for distributed control
Problems such as the design of distributed controllers are characterized by modularity and symmetry. However, the symmetries useful for solving them are often difficult to determ...

The sensitivity of HyperNEAT to different geometric representations of a problem
HyperNEAT, a generative encoding for evolving artificial neural networks (ANNs), has the unique and powerful ability to exploit the geometry of a problem (e.g., symmetries) by enc...

Evolving morphology and control: A distributed approach
—In this paper we present a model which allows to co-evolve the morphology and the control system of realistically simulated robots (creatures). The method proposed is based on a...
