Proposals

Roli
- Evolution of Braitenberg controllers. Goal: pray-predator behaviour
- Implementation of Braitenberg controllers in a Lego Mindstorm robot. Goal: test vehicles 2 and 3
- Design of a subsumption architecture such that the robot is able to perform obstacle avoidance and phototaxis
- Evolution of a neural network controller (or any network variant, such as Boolean network) for obstacle avoidance or phototaxis or both
- Evolution of a neural network controller (or any network variant, such as Boolean network) for collective behaviour, such as gathering or flocking
- Evolution of a neural network controller (or any network variant, such as Boolean network) for maze solving
- Sequence learning task in BN robotics. Goal: T-maze behaviour
- Information measures and intelligent behaviour: evolution of a neural network controller (or any network variant, such as Boolean network) such that a group of robots maximises the average mutual information or the LMC complexity or a similar information measure
- Implement the robot program described in Labella et al., Division of labor in a group of robots inspired by ants' foraging behavior, ACM Transactions on Autonomous and Adaptive Systems, Volume 1 Issue 1, 2006, and do some statistics.
