Learning benefits evolution if sex gives pleasure
Abstract-- In this paper we investigate the effects of individual learning on an evolving population of situated agents. We work with a novel type of system where agents can decide...

Subtree deactivation control with grammatical Genetic Programming in dynamic environments
Abstract-- We investigate the usefulness of a subtree deactivation control mechanism which is open to evolutionary learning. It is hypothesised that this representation confers an ...

Evosphere: Evolutionary dynamics in a population of fighting virtual creatures
It is often suggested that traditional models of artificial evolution, based on explicit, human-defined fitness functions, are fundamentally more restricted and less creative than ...

Investigation of simply coded evolutionary artificial neural networks on robot control problems
One of the advantages of evolutionary robotics over other approaches in embodied cognitive science would be its parallel population search. Due to the population search, it takes a...

Learning defect classifiers for visual inspection images by neuro-evolution using weakly labelled training data
This article presents results from experiments where a detector for defects in visual inspection images was learned from scratch by EANT2, a method for evolutionary reinforcement l...

Directed trees: A powerful representation for sorting and ordering problems
We present a simple framework for dealing with search spaces consisting of permutations. To demonstrate its usefulness, we build upon it a simple (1 + 1)-evolutionary algorithm fo...

Efficient evolution of ART neural networks
Abstract-- Genetic algorithms have been used to evolve several neural network architectures. In a previous effort, we introduced the evolution of three well known ART architects; F...
