Biological brains can adapt and learn from past experience. In neuroevolution, i.e. evolving artificial neural networks (ANNs), one way that agents controlled by ANNs can evolve t...
Abstract. Neuromodulators can have a strong effect on how organisms cooperate and compete for resources. To better understand the effect of neuromodulation on cooperative behavior,...

Abstract. In this paper we study distributed online learning of locomotion gaits for modular robots. The learning is based on a stochastic approximation method, SPSA, which optimiz...
Prefrontal cortex (PFC) has been implicated in the ability to switch behavioral strategies in response to changes in reward contingencies. A recent experimental study has shown tha...
