Evolution of alternate object pushing in a simulated embodied agent: Preliminary report Razvan V. Florian
Abstract A push-release-seek reflex is evolved in a simulated simple agent interacting with objects. The agent is controlled by a spiking neural network. Succesful experiments involved a network of 125 neurons and spike-time-dependent synaptic plasticity. Plasticity seems to be actively used by the evolved network in memorizing some aspects of the environment that allow the performance of the task. Technical Report Coneural-04-02.
