Abstract. In psychology the ‘A not B’ error, whereby infants perseverate in reaching to the location where a toy was previously hidden after it has been moved to a new location...
Language can be viewed as a complex adaptive system which is continuously shaped and reshaped by the actions of its users as they try to solve communicative problems. To maintain c...
Both reactive and deliberative qualities are essential for a good action selection mechanism. We present a model that embodies a hybrid of two very different neural network archit...
Abstract. We present a model of a recurrent neural network with homeostasic units, embodied in a minimalist articulated agent with a single link and joint. The configuration of th...
It is well known that the evolution of cooperative behaviour is dependant upon certain environmental conditions. One such condition that has been extensively studied is the use of ...
It is well known that certain environmental conditions, such as a spatially structured population, can promote the evolution of cooperative traits. However, such conditions are usu...

Abstract. Pioneer approaches to Artificial Intelligence have traditionally neglected, in a chronological sequence, the agent body, the world where the agent is situated, and the o...
Using a simple simulation model of evolution and learning this paper provides some evolutionary arguments on why Lamarckianlike inheritance - direct transfer of lifetime learning r...

The human body has a complex skeleton, giving a very high number of degrees of freedom, and is actuated by a large number of elastic elements muscles and tendons. As a consequence,...

Abstract. We quantify the local information dynamics at each spatiotemporal point in a complex system in terms of each element of computation: information storage, transfer and mod...
