Abstract. We propose a new operation of belief revision, called permissive belief revision. The underlying idea of permissive belief revision is to replace the beliefs that are aba...
Abstract. In this paper we explore the similarities between a mathematical model of language evolution and several A-life simulations. We argue that the mathematical model makes so...
Some benefits of a dialogue between evolutionary robotics and developmental ethology are presented with discussion of how developmental models might inform approaches to evolution...
Several of the Major Transitions in natural evolution, such as the symbiogenic origin of eukaryotes from prokaryotes, share the feature that existing entities became the components...
A visually-based evolvable control architecture for agents in interactive entertainment applications is presented. Agents process images of their local surroundings according to ev...
