Abstract: This paper discusses the Baldwin effect with respect to the immune system---a learning mechanism that rivals the complexity and computational power of the nervous system. In previous work we used a binary model of the immune system to study the effects of evolution on the genetic representation of antibodies [4]. Here we have extended this model to include "clonal selection," which is the learning process used by the immune system. Once this learning mechanism was incorporated into the model it ... (Update)
