While the theory and practice of evolutionary robotics is well established, most work to date has been concerned with evolving a robot’s control system – it’s software. This chapter is concerned instead with the more difficult problem of how to evolv... Read More about Evolvable robot hardware.

Towards verifiably ethical robot behaviour (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Dennis, L. A., Fisher, M., & Winfield, A. F. (2015, January). Towards verifiably ethical robot behaviour. Presented at Twenty-Ninth AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Texas, USA

Ensuring that autonomous systems work ethically is both complex and difficult. However, the idea of having an additional ‘governor’ that assesses options the system has, and prunes them to select the most ethical choices is well understood. Recent wo...

An artificial immune system for self-healing in swarm robotic systems (2015)
Journal Article
Winfield, A., Bjerknes, J. D., Ismail, A. R., Bjerknes, J. D., Timmis, J., & Winfield, A. F. (2015). An artificial immune system for self-healing in swarm robotic systems. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 9303, 61-74. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-23108-2_6

© Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015. Swarm robotics is concerned with the decentralised coordination of multiple robots having only limited communication and interaction abilities. Although fault tolerance and robustness to individua... Read More about An artificial immune system for self-healing in swarm robotic systems.
