In a social scenario, establishing whether a collaboration is required to achieve a certain goal is a complex problem that requires decision making capabilities and coordination am...

Abstract. Classical evolutionary algorithms have been extremely successful at solving certain problems. But they implement a very simple model of evolutionary biology that misses o...
This paper1 introduces a simple model for evolutionary dynamics approaching the “coding threshold”, where the capacity to symbolically represent nucleic acid sequences emerges ...

We develop a multi-level selection model in the framework of indirect reciprocity. Using two levels of selection, one at the individual level and another at the group level, we pro...

We present an extremely minimal ecosystem model which takes account of thermodynamic constraints on the organisms’ metabolism. This suggests a way to test the application of a hy...
Symbiosis, the collaboration of multiple organisms from different species, is common in nature. A related phenomenon, symbiogenesis, the creation of new species through the genetic...
This paper describes a study in the use of digital evolution to produce cooperative communication behavior in a population of digital organisms. The results demonstrate that digita...

One major criticism of direct or active perception (and other forms of embodied action) from the perspective of cognitive psycology is that, according to common sense, there are so...
Our agent-based model of genotype editing is defined by two distinct genetic components: a coding portion encoding phenotypic solutions, and a non-coding portion used to edit the ...
Abstract. A coarse-coding regulatory model that facilitates neural heterogeneity through a morphogenetic process is presented. The model demonstrates cellular and tissue extensibil...
