Chapter and Conference Paper
We introduce a novel evolutionary algorithm where the centralized oracle –the selection-reproduction loop– is replaced by a distributed system of Fate Agents that autonomously perform the evolutionary operations....
Chapter and Conference Paper
Imagine autonomous, self-sufficient robot collectives that can adapt their controllers autonomously and self-sufficiently to learn to cope with situations unforeseen by their designers. As one step towards the...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper is inspired by a vision of self-sufficient robot collectives that adapt autonomously to deal with their environment and to perform user-defined tasks at the same time. We introduce the monee algorithm ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In this work we investigate the usage of feedforward neural networks for defining the genotype-phenotype maps of arbitrary continuous optimization problems. A study is carried out over the neural network param...
Chapter and Conference Paper
PPSN 2016 hosts a total number of 16 tutorials covering a broad range of current research in evolutionary computation. The tutorials range from introductory to advanced and specialized but can all be attended ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper describes a study in evolutionary robotics conducted completely in hardware without using simulations. The experiments employ on-line evolution, where robot controllers evolve on-the-fly in the robo...

Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper presents a method to model the intended destination of a subject in real time, based on a trace of position information and prior knowledge of possible destinations. In contrast to most work in this...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The design of spacecraft trajectories for missions visiting multiple celestial bodies is here framed as a multi-objective bilevel optimization problem. A comparative study is performed to assess the performanc...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We present a study on morphological traits of evolved modular robots. We note that the evolutionary search space –the set of obtainable morphologies– depends on the given representation and reproduction operat...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Morphologically evolving robot systems need to include a learning period right after ‘birth’ to acquire a controller that fits the newly created body. In this paper, we investigate learning one skill in partic...
