A significant problem for evolving artificial neural networks is that the physical arrangement of sensors and effectors is invisible to the evolutionary algorithm. For example,...
We explore the use of the developmental environment as a spatial constraint on a model of Artificial Embryogeny, applied to the growth of structural forms. A Deva model is used t...
— This paper introduces a novel robot which can run on the surface of water in a manner similar to basilisk lizards. Previous studies on the lizards themselves have characterized...

Abstract. To develop statistical models for shapes, we utilize an elastic string representation where curves (denoting shapes) can bend and locally stretch (or compress) to optimal...
