The Complex Facets of Reputation and Trust

Karl Aberer, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

Trust and reputation systems have proven to be essential to enforcing cooperative behavior in peer-to-peer networks. We briefly describe the current approaches to building reputation systems: social networks formation, probabilistic estimation and game the ...

Topological SLAM

Adriana Tapus

This thesis is about topological navigation, more precisely about space representation, perception, localization and mapping. All these elements are needed in order to obtain a robust and reliable framework for navigation. This is essential in order to mov ...

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 ...

Fast Color-Independent Ball Detection for Mobile Robots

Sara Mitri

This paper presents a novel scheme for fast color invariant ball detection in the RoboCup context. Edge ﬁltered camera images serve as an input for an Ada Boost learning procedure that constructs a cascade of classiﬁcation and regression trees (CARTs). Our ...

Evolution of Spiking Neural Controllers for Autonomous Vision-based Robots

Dario Floreano, Claudio Mattiussi

We describe a set of preliminary experiments to evolve spiking neural controllers for a vision-based mobile robot. All the evolutionary experiments are carried out on physical robots without human intervention. After discussing how to implement and interfa ...

A Multi Modal Web Interface for Tasks Supervision and Specification

Roland Siegwart, Nicola Tomatis, Björn Jensen, Kai Oliver Arras

In this paper we present a multi-modal web interface for autonomous mobile robots. The purpose of this interface is twofold. It serves as a tool for task supervision for the researcher and task specification for the end-user. The applications envisaged are ...

Evolution of Adaptive-Synapse Controllers

Dario Floreano, Joseba Urzelai

This paper is concerned with artificial evolution of neuro-controllers with adaptive synapses for autonomous mobile robots. The method consists of encoding on the genotype a set of local modification rules that synapses obey while the robot freely moves in ...

Co-evolving predator and prey robots: Do 'arm races' arise in artificial evolution?

Dario Floreano

Co-evolution (i.e. the evolution of two or more competing populations with coupled fitness) has several features that may potentially enhance the power of adaptation of artificial evolution. In particular, as discussed by Dawkins and Krebs [3], competing p ...

Evolutionary Neurocontrollers for Autonomous Mobile Robots

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada

In this article we describe a methodology for evolving neurocontrollers of autonomous mobile robots without human intervention. The presentation, which spans from technological and methodological issues to several experimental results on evolution of physi ...

How co-evolution can enhance the adaptation power of artificial evolution: Implications for evolutionary robotics

Dario Floreano

Co-evolution (i.e. the evolution of two or more competing populations with coupled fitness) has several interesting features that may potentially enhance the power of adaptation of artificial evolution. In particular, as discussed by Dawkins and Krebs [2], ...
