My Research
-
Try my
Java simulation of the Embodied Evolution experiments
(soon to be published!). Here's a
summary
of our work. More
implementation details
are also available. Look at some
pictures.
- The research we performed previously was called Adaptive Search Space Division.
- Check my apples-java video game This is a long term project, where I intend to apply the knowledge we have acquired in evolutionary computation over the Internet. Check the Tron evolutionary learning game that Pablo Funes created, to get an idea where we want to get to.
- Currently, I'm interested in embodied multi-robot learning techniques. I know that this is a quite broad explanation, but I hope that I'll generate soon a technical report with all the work done so far.
- Unfortunately, most of the stuff I'm working right now is still to pre-mature to be "advertised" on the web. Once we are done with the experiments we will link our personal pages to the private pages where we keep all the information.
