Evolution of Collective Behaviors for a Real Swarm of Aquatic Surface Robots
Miguel Duarte, Vasco Costa, Jorge Gomes +4
Swarm robotics is a promising approach for the coordination of large numbers of robots. While previous studies have shown that evolutionary robotics techniques can be applied to ob…
Virtual Nervous Systems for Self-Assembling Robots - A preliminary report
Nithin Mathews, Anders Lyhne Christensen, Rehan O'Grady +1
We define the nervous system of a robot as the processing unit responsible for controlling the robot body, together with the links between the processing unit and the sensorimotor…
Systematic Derivation of Behaviour Characterisations in Evolutionary Robotics
Jorge Gomes, Pedro Mariano, Anders Lyhne Christensen
Evolutionary techniques driven by behavioural diversity, such as novelty search, have shown significant potential in evolutionary robotics. These techniques rely on priorly specifi…
Novelty Search in Competitive Coevolution
Jorge Gomes, Pedro Mariano, Anders Lyhne Christensen
One of the main motivations for the use of competitive coevolution systems is their ability to capitalise on arms races between competing species to evolve increasingly sophisticat…
Generic Behaviour Similarity Measures for Evolutionary Swarm Robotics
Jorge Gomes, Anders Lyhne Christensen
Novelty search has shown to be a promising approach for the evolution of controllers for swarm robotics. In existing studies, however, the experimenter had to craft a domain depend…
Evolution of Swarm Robotics Systems with Novelty Search
Jorge Gomes, Paulo Urbano, Anders Lyhne Christensen
Novelty search is a recent artificial evolution technique that challenges traditional evolutionary approaches. In novelty search, solutions are rewarded based on their novelty, rat…
