: Autonomous neural network systems typically require fast learning and good generalization performance, and there is potentially a trade-off between the two. The use of evolutiona...
This paper presents results of measuring evolution in a simple ALife system. Interpretation of these results is based on the notion of dynamical systems. This approach enables the ...
Abstract. Recent work in the field of computational evolutionary linguistics suggests that the dynamics arising from the cultural evolution of language can explain the emergence o...
In this paper we examine the effects of the emergence of a new replicator, memes, on the evolution of a pre-existing replicator, genes. Using a version of the NKCS model we examin...
To look for an answer to the puzzle of why complexity may increase, this paper looks to the major evolutionary transitions – a recurring pattern where individuals give up their r...
