The Surprising Creativity of Digital Evolution: A Collection of Anecdotes from the Evolutionary Computation and Artificial Life Research Communities
Joel Lehman, Jeff Clune, Dusan Misevic +50
Biological evolution provides a creative fount of complex and subtle adaptations, often surprising the scientists who discover them. However, because evolution is an algorithmic pr…
Exploring the coevolution of predator and prey morphology and behavior
Randal S. Olson, Arend Hintze, Fred C. Dyer +2
A common idiom in biology education states, "Eyes in the front, the animal hunts. Eyes on the side, the animal hides." In this paper, we explore one possible explanation for why pr…
Exploring the evolution of a trade-off between vigilance and foraging in group-living organisms
Randal S. Olson, Patrick B. Haley, Fred C. Dyer +1
Despite the fact that grouping behavior has been actively studied for over a century, the relative importance of the numerous proposed fitness benefits of grouping remain unclear.…
Predator confusion is sufficient to evolve swarming behavior
Randal S. Olson, Arend Hintze, Fred C. Dyer +2
Swarming behaviors in animals have been extensively studied due to their implications for the evolution of cooperation, social cognition, and predator-prey dynamics. An important g…
