Evolution of Embodied Intelligence

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada, Andres Perez-Uribe, Daniel Roggen

We provide an overview of the evolutionary approach to the emergence of artificial intelligence in embodied behavioral agents. This approach, also known as Evolutionary Robotics, builds and capitalizes upon the interactions between the embodied agent and i ...

Neural Synthesis of Artificial Organisms through Evolution

Dario Floreano

Evolutionary robotics is the attempt to develop robots through a self-organized process based on artificial evolution. This approach stresses the importance of the study of systems that have a body and that are situated in a physical environment, and which ...

Neural Morphogenesis, Synaptic Plasticity, and Evolution

Dario Floreano, Joseba Urzelai

Morphology plays an important role in the computational properties of neural systems, affecting both their functionality and the way in which this functionality is developed during life. In computer-based models of neural networks, artificial evolution is ...

Evolutionary approaches to study cytochrome c peroxidase

Kai Johnsson, Petra Tafelmeyer

A review with 15 refs. Directed mol. evolution of enzymes and proteins has emerged as an extremely powerful method to create proteins with novel properties, both for practical applications as well as for mechanistic studies. To demonstrate the underlying p ...

Changing the substrate specificity of cytochrome c peroxidase using directed evolution

Kai Johnsson, Petra Tafelmeyer

Cytochrome c peroxidase (I) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was subjected to directed mol. evolution to generate mutants with increased activity against ABTS [2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)]. Using a combination of DNA shuffling and s ...

Artificial Evolution of Adaptive Software: An Application to Autonomous Robots

Dario Floreano, Joseba Urzelai

Artificial evolution of computer software (evolutionary neural networks, genetic programming, evolutionary fuzzy systems, etc.) has been shown to generate software that in many cases is more performant than that designed by engineers. Evolved software perf ...

Evolutionary Robots with on-line self-organization and behavioral fitness

Dario Floreano, Joseba Urzelai

We address two issues in Evolutionary Robotics, namely the genetic encoding and the performance criterion, also known as fitness function. For the first aspect, we suggest to encode mechanisms for parameter self-organization, instead of the parameters them ...

Directed molecular evolution of cytochrome c peroxidase

Kai Johnsson, Petra Tafelmeyer

Cytochrome c peroxidase (CCP) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was subjected to directed mol. evolution to generate mutants with increased activity against the classical peroxidase substrate, guaiacol, thus changing the substrate specificity of CCP from the p ...

Learning and Evolution

Dario Floreano

In the last few years several researchers have resorted to artificial evolution (e.g. genetic algorithms) and learning techniques (e.g. neural networks) for studying the interaction between learning and evolution. These studies have been conducted for two ...
