This paper presents a model of neural network embodiment of intentions and planning mechanisms for autonomous agents. The model bridges the dichotomy of symbolic and non-symbolic ...
Neither `design' nor `evolutionary' approaches to building behavior-based robots feature a role for development in the genesis of behavioral organization. However, the n...
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...
This paper proposes a new evolutionary method for generating ANNs. In this method, a simple real-number string is used to codify both architecture and weights of the networks. Ther...
To successfully apply evolutionary algorithms to the solution of increasingly complex problems, we must develop effective techniques for evolving solutions in the form of interact...
