Evolution of Evolvability via Adaptation of Mutation Rates - Bedau, Packard (2003) (1 citation) (Correct)
....and enhancing evolution s adaptive power is obvious, but the theoretical implications of evolvability are also significant. There is general agreement that evolvability is crucial for understanding the orgin of complex adaptations [9, 10, 21, 34, 23] as well as the process of open ended evolution [32, 26], a central open problem in artificial life [7, 8, 5] In addition, Wagner and Altenberg [1, 34] argue that evolvability can unify and explain a host of seemingly related issues, including epistasis, genetic canalization, genetic modularity, developmental constraints, developmental and ....

Optimal Design for the Evolution of Composite Mappings - Suzuki (2001) (Correct)
.... mapping, composite mapping 1 Introduction In the design of an artificial life (alife) system, the system s evolvability , defined as the possibility (potential ability) of evolving a variety of genotypes or phenotypes, is one of the most important properties a designer has to pay attention to [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. The evolvability determines the system s final performance; hence to design a good alife system, we have to answer the following three primary questions about evolvability. ffl What is an objective measure for evolvability ffl What are the necessary conditions for an alife system to be ....

....genotype space (Assump. 3) the insertion or duplication of alphabets is one of the most important genetic operations for creating a new function. Analyzing a variablelength genotype space is also a future problem to be tackled [15] Evolvability is a major issue in recent Artificial Life studies [1, 2, 16, 10, 14]. The author expects that the present study might provide useful information for optimizing the design of an ALife system [14] Acknowledgements Prof. Nishikawa, National Institute of Genetics at Mishima, and Prof. Iwasa, Kyushu University, provided helpful comments on this study.

....at the earliest stages of prebiotic evolution. While this is clearly not the case for biological evolution, I believe that the argument still holds in that prebiotic self replicators must at least have had the potential for explicit interpretation machinery to evolve. See (Taylor 1999a) p. 212) or (Taylor 2000) for further discussion. 3 Although I think that an implementation of von Neumann s model would not exhibit high evolvability for other reasons, not least because the organisms have no capacity for self maintenance in the face of environmental perturbations. Embeddedness in the Arena of ....
