Evolution of cooperation in N-player social dilemmas: The importance of being mobile
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2016)
This paper addresses issues regarding the emergence of cooperation in evolutionary, spatial game-theoretic simulations. In the model considered, agents participate in a social dilemma with their neighbours and have the ...
The optional prisoner's dilemma in a spatial environment: Co-evolving game strategy and link weights
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2016)
In this paper, the Optional Prisoner’s Dilemma game in a spatial environment, with coevolutionary rules for both the strategy and network links between agents, is studied. Using a Monte Carlo simulation approach, a number ...
Cyclic dominance in the spatial coevolutionary optional prisoner's dilemma game
(CEUR-WS.org, 2016-09-20)
This paper studies scenarios of cyclic dominance in a coevolutionary
spatial model in which game strategies and links between
agents adaptively evolve over time. The Optional Prisoner’s Dilemma
(OPD) game is employed. ...
An evolutionary approach to formation control with mobile robots
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2016)
The field of swarm robotics studies multi-robot systems, emphasising decentralised and self-organising behaviours that deal with limited individual abilities, local sensing and local communication. A robotic system needs ...
Evolving collective behaviours in simulated kilobots
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2018-04-09)
The field of Evolutionary Robotics has multiple common tasks and widely used benchmark activities such as navigation, obstacle avoidance, and phototaxis. We present an evolutionary approach to learning behaviours that ...
Analysing the impact of dimensionality on diversity in a multi-layered Genotype-Phenotype mapped genetic algorithm
(IEEE, 2013-06-20)
This paper examines the impact of changes in dimensionality on a multi-layered genotype-phenotype mapped GA. To gain an understanding of the impact we carry out a series of experiments on a number of well understood ...
Diversifying techniques and neutrality in genetic algorithms
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2016)
This paper examines the implicit maintenance of diversity within a population through the inclusion of a layered genotype-phenotype map (GP-map) in a Genetic Algorithm (GA), based on the principal of Neutral theory. The ...
Neutrality through transcription and translation in genetic algorithm representation
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2012-10-05)
This paper examines the use of the biological concepts of transcription and translation, to introduce neutrality into the representation of a genetic algorithm (GA). The aim of the paper is to attempt to identify problem ...
Examining the impact of neutrality on genetic algorithm population evolution
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2015-11-12)
This paper examines the introduction of neutrality as proposed by Kimura (Kimura, 1968) into the genotype-phenotype mapping of a Genetic Algorithm (GA). The paper looks at the evolution of both a simple GA (SGA) and a ...
A genetic algorithm with a multi-layered genotype-phenotype mapping
(SciTePress Digital Library, 2010-08-24)
In this paper we investigate the introduction of a multiple-layer genotype-phenotype mapping to a Genetic Algorithm (GA) which attempts to mimic more closely, the effects of nature. The motivation for introducing multiple-layers ...
