Duplication of Modules Facilitates the Evolution of Functional Specialization
The evolution of simulated robots with three different architectures is studied in this article. We compare a nonmodular feed-forward network, a hardwired modular, and a duplicatio...

Emergent specialization in the extended multi-rover problem
Abstract— This paper introduces the Collective Neuro Evolution (CONE) method, and compares its efficacy for designing specialization, with a conventional Neuro-Evolution (NE) me...

Modular co-evolution of metabolic networks
Background: The architecture of biological networks has been reported to exhibit high level of modularity, and to some extent, topological modules of networks overlap with known f...

A Population Density Approach That Facilitates Large-Scale Modeling of Neural Networks: Analysis and an Application to Orientati
We explore a computationally efficient method of simulating realistic networks of neurons introduced by Knight, Manin, and Sirovich (1996) in which integrate-and-fire neurons are ...
