Robot controllers are often optimized for a single robot in a single environment. This approach proves brittle, as such a controller will often fail to produce sensible behavior for a new morphology or environment. In comparison, animal gai...
Cognitive Distinctions as a Language for Cognitive Science: Comparing Methods of Description in a Model of Referential Communication [0.03%]
认知区分作为认知科学的语言：在指代交际模型中比较描述方法
Thomas M Gaul,Eduardo J Izquierdo
Thomas M Gaul
An analysis of the language we use in scientific practice is critical to developing more rigorous and sound methodologies. This article argues that how certain methods of description are commonly employed in cognitive science risks obscurin...

Central to the Artificial Life endeavor is the creation of artificial systems that spontaneously generate properties found in the living world, such as autopoiesis, self-replication, evolution, and open-endedness. Though numerous models and...
Ecology, Spatial Structure, and Selection Pressure Induce Strong Signatures in Phylogenetic Structure [0.03%]
生态学、空间结构和选择压力在系统发育结构中产生强烈特征

Matthew Andres Moreno
Evolutionary dynamics are shaped by a variety of fundamental, generic drivers, including spatial structure, ecology, and selection pressure. These drivers impact the trajectory of evolution and have been hypothesized to influence phylogenet...

Camouflage in nature seems to arise from competition between predator and prey. To survive, predators must find prey, while prey must avoid being found. A simulation model of that adversarial relationship is presented here. Camouflage patte...
