This article depicts the approach used to build the Topos application, a simulation of two-wheel robots able to discern real complex sounds. Topos is framed in the nouvelle concep...
Creating artificial life forms through evolutionary robotics faces a “chicken and egg” problem: learning to control a complex body is dominated by problems specific to its s...
We address two issues in Evolutionary Robotics, namely the genetic encoding and the performance criterion, also known as fitness function. For the first aspect, we suggest to enco...
An approach to robotics called layered evolution and merging features from the subsumption architecture into evolutionary robotics is presented, and its advantages are discussed. T...
Research paper Purpose of this paper This paper describe an integrated hardware/software system based on Evolutionary Robotics and its application in Edutainment context. Design/me...
In this paper, we use a massive modular architecture for the generation of complex behaviours in complex robots within the evolutionary robotics framework. We define two different ...
This paper empirically investigates the use and behaviour of Evolution Strategies (ES) algorithms on problems such as function optimisation and the use of evolutionary artificial ...
Some benefits of a dialogue between evolutionary robotics and developmental ethology are presented with discussion of how developmental models might inform approaches to evolution...
— The bootstrap problem is often recognized as one of the main challenges of evolutionary robotics: if all individuals from the first randomly generated population perform equal...
