We present a new self-reproducing cellular automaton capable of construction and computation beyond self-reproduction. Our automaton makes use of some of the concepts developed by...
A genetic algorithm scheme with a stochastic genotype/phenotype relation is proposed. The mechanisms responsible for this intermediate level of uncertainty, are inspired by the bio...
In this paper we investigate the phenomenon of multi-parent reproduction, i.e. we study recombination mechanisms where an arbitrary n > 1 number of parents participate in creati...

Although recently there has been an increasing interest in studing genetically-based development using Artificial Life models, the mapping of the genetic information into the phen...
