Synthesis of rather simple behaviors such as\r\ncollision avoidance by applying artificial evolution has been shown multiple\r\ntimes. However, the difficulty of this synthesis increases heavily with\r\nincreasing complexity of the task that should be performed by the robot. We try\r\nto tackle this problem of complexity with Artificial Homeostatic Hormone\r\nSystems (AHHS), which provide both intrinsic, homeostatic processes and\r\n(transient) intrinsic, variant behavior. By using AHHS the need for pre-defined\r\ncontroller topologies or information about the field of application is\r\nminimized. We investigate how the principle design of the controller and the\r\nhormone network size affects the overall performance of the artificial\r\nevolution (i.e., evolvability). This is done by comparing two variants of AHHS\r\nthat show different effects when mutated. We evolve a controller for a robot\r\nbuilt from five autonomous, cooperating modules. The desired behavior is a form\r\nof gait resulting in fast locomotion by using the modules' main hinges."}],"author":[{"first_name":"Heiko","full_name":"Hamann, Heiko","last_name":"Hamann"},{"full_name":"Stradner, Jürgen","last_name":"Stradner","first_name":"Jürgen"},{"first_name":"Thomas","last_name":"Schmickl","full_name":"Schmickl, Thomas"},{"last_name":"Crailsheim","full_name":"Crailsheim, Karl","first_name":"Karl"}],"status":"public","year":"2010","page":"773-780","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:54:23Z","type":"conference","publication":"Artificial Life XII (ALife XII), Odense, Denmark","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
