Abstract: Evolution has produced organisms whose locomotive agility and adaptivity mock the di#culty faced by robotic scientists. The problem of locomotion, which nature has solved so well, is surprisingly complex and di#cult. We explore the ability of an artificial eight-legged arachnid, or animat, to autonomously learn a locomotive gait in a three-dimensional environment. We take a physics-based approach at modeling the world and the virtual body of the animat. The arachnid-like animat learns muscular... (Update)
