.... off the shelf components; they are a plug and play robot colony that is used for task planning and control. Further, an EvBot can be used individually, e.g. in a security or search and rescue application. A review of the literature shows that evolutionary robotics is an active research area [5]. Early research was limited to simple sensor motor control. Currently, more hierarchically ordered architectures are being suggested and there is discussion on whether knowledge based algorithms are more efficient than evolutionary algorithms [5] There is also discussion with regard to the ....
....evolutionary robotics is an active research area [5] Early research was limited to simple sensor motor control. Currently, more hierarchically ordered architectures are being suggested and there is discussion on whether knowledge based algorithms are more efficient than evolutionary algorithms [5]. There is also discussion with regard to the scalability issues [2] Worldwide, many groups have developed miniature mobile robot platforms. Some have been designed and built from discrete components [1] 2] 4] others [6] have been adapted from other systems. Whereas the adapted systems leave ....

Keywords: neural networks, evolution, lenticular blimp 1 Introduction Over about the past ten years, attempts at evolving neural controllers for robots have proliferated (see [4] for a review) and this approach is currently the most popular in evolutionary robotics ( 6, 5] However, it mostly involves crawling, rolling or walking robots, i.e. robots that move on the ground, and much more rarely swimming or ying robots, probably because such robots are still uncommon ....

Key words: Evolutionary robotics; Obstacle avoidance; Incremental evolution; Khepera 1 Introduction According to a recent review [26] of evolutionary approaches to neural control in mobile robots, it appears that the corresponding research efforts usually call upon a direct encoding scheme, where the phenotype of a given robot i.e. its neural controller and, occasionally, its body plan is directly encoded into its ....

A review of similar approaches involving a variety of neural controllers and robots is available in Meyer [8]. 2 The SGOCE evolutionary paradigm The SGOCE evolutionary paradigm is characterized by an encoding scheme, by an evolutionary algorithm, by an incremental strategy, and by a fitness evaluation procedure that will be sketched in turn. More detailed descriptions can be found in Chavas et al. 1] ....

....that bypass human intervention insofar as possible and that more or less automatically adapt a robot s controller and morphology to the speci c problems it has to solve. The basic idea underlying such approaches to evolutionary robotics (Gomi, 1997, 1998; Higuchi et al. 1997; Husbands and Meyer, 1998), is to draw inspiration from biology and to implement a process of arti cial selection that exploits the coding of a robot s phenotype into its genotype. In three previous articles (Kodjabachian and Meyer, 1995, 1998a, 1998b) the advantages of inserting a developmental process between the ....

In three previous articles (Kodjabachian and Meyer, 1995, 1998a, 1998b) the advantages of inserting a developmental process between the genotype and the phenotype have been emphasized and a methodology implementing such a process has been developed. In particular, it has been shown how the so called SGOCE evolutionary paradigm could be used to generate ....
