New factorial design theoretic crossover operator for parametrical problem (2003)
Conference Proceeding
Chan, K. Y., Aydin, M. E., & Fogarty, T. C. (2003). New factorial design theoretic crossover operator for parametrical problem. In C. Ryan, E. Costa, R. Poli, E. Tsang, M. Keijzer, & T. Soule (Eds.), Genetic Programming (22-33). https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-36599-0_3

Recent research shows that factorial design methods improve the performance of the crossover operator in evolutionary computation. However the methods employed so far ignore the effects of interaction between genes on fitness, i.e. "epistasis". Here...

Direct Lyapunov design - A synthesis procedure for motor schema using a second-order Lyapunov stability theorem (2002)
Conference Proceeding
Harper, C., & Winfield, A. (2002). Direct Lyapunov design - A synthesis procedure for motor schema using a second-order Lyapunov stability theorem. In IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (2085-2090). https://doi.org/10.1109/IRDS.2002.1041573

In this paper we propose a new procedure for construction of motor schema typically used in behaviour-based robotics. The procedure reverses the standard stability analysis approach by searching for a control function to fit a pre-defined Lyapunov f...

On using constructivism in neural classifier systems (2002)
Conference Proceeding
Bull, L. (2002). On using constructivism in neural classifier systems. In J. J. Merelo, P. Adamidis, & H. Beyer (Eds.), In Parallel Problem Solving from Nature — PPSN VII. , (558-567). https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-45712-7_54

For artificial entities to achieve true autonomy and display complex life-like behaviour they will need to exploit appropriate adaptable learning algorithms. In this sense adaptability implies flexibility guided by the environment at any given time a... Read More about On using constructivism in neural classifier systems.
