Evolutionary robotics applies the selection, variation, and heredity principles of natural
evolution to the design of robots with embodied intelligence. It can be considered as a …

This article provides an overview of evolutionary robotics techniques applied to online
distributed evolution for robot collectives, namely, embodied evolution. It provides a …

Evolution provides a creative fount of complex and subtle adaptations that often surprise the
scientists who discover them. However, the creativity of evolution is not limited to the natural …

One of the long-term goals in evolutionary robotics is to be able to automatically synthesize
controllers for real autonomous robots based only on a task specification. While a number of …

Interconnected everyday objects, either via public or private networks, are gradually
becoming reality in modern life—often referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT) or Cyber …

This article is concerned with a fixed-size population of autonomous agents facing unknown,
possibly changing, environments. The motivation is to design an embodied evolutionary …

Self-adaptive systems (SAS) may be subjected to conditions for which they were not
explicitly designed. For those high-assurance SAS applications that must deliver critical …

Since early cybernetics studies by Wiener, Pask, and Ashby, the properties of living systems
are subject to deep investigations. The goals of this endeavour are both understanding and …

Applications of large-scale mobile multirobot systems can be beneficial over monolithic
robots because of higher potential for robustness and scalability. Develo** controllers for …
