Evolutionary Robotics
Evolutionary robotics is a sub-field of artificial life in which evolutionary algorithms are used to evolve robot morphology (i.e. shape) and/or behavior. Sometimes these robots exist only in simulation, while other times evolved morphologies and behaviors are translated out of the computer and into physical robots.
Fitness
Fitness is a quantification of an individual's evolutionary success. In biology, an individual's fitness is generally measured as the number of offspring that individual has. Many artificial life platforms operate…
Fitness Landscape
A fitness landscape is a mapping from a combination of trait values to a fitness. They are generally visualized so as to make it clear which trait values are closer…
