— In this paper we investigate how neural fields can produce an elegant solution for the problem of moving multiple robots in formation. The objective is to acquire a target, av...
—To enable effective human-agent collaboration, new human-centric computing paradigms are needed. This paper presents a soft constraint representation scheme based on generalized...
— The results presented in this paper are a part of the second phase of a body of research with the goal of coevolving the mind and morphology of dynamic robots. We use a 3-Dimen...
