Embodied Computational Evolution: Feedback Between Development and Evolution in Simulated Biorobots

Given that selection removes genetic variance from evolving populations, thereby reducing exploration opportunities, it is important to find mechanisms that create genetic variation without the disruption of adapted genes and genomes caused by random mutation. Just such an alternative is offered by...
