Abstract. Some research works have mentioned the similarity of autopoiesis with (M,R) systems proposed by Rosen, from the perspective of closedness of the systems. However, there a...
In this paper1 , we introduce a method, Assortative Preferential Attachment, to grow a scale-free network with a given assortativeness value. Utilizing this method, we investigate ...

Abstract. Evolutionary robotics simulations can serve as a tool to clarify counterintuitive or dynamically complex aspects of sensorimotor behaviour. We present a series of simulat...
Abstract. In this paper we present an extension of the ShapeBugs distributed formation algorithm which enables 2D mobile agents to agree on a consensus coordinate system starting f...
The paper investigates the role of an affective system as part of an ethologically-inspired action-selection mechanism for virtual animals in a 3D interactive graphics environment....
We introduce the concept of neutral emergence (defined by analogy to an information theoretic view of neutral evolution), and discuss how it might be used in the engineering of ro...
Abstract. The paper presents a method to guide the self-organised development of behaviours of autonomous robots. In earlier publications we demonstrated how to use the homeokinesi...
