We analyze the schema theorem and the building block hypothesis using a recently derived, exact schemata evolution equation. We derive a new schema theorem based on the concept of...

Evolution Strategies (ES) for black-box optimization of a function f : Rn → R are investigated. Namely, we consider the cumulative step-size adaptation (CSA) for the variance of...
This paper investigates the evolution of autonomous agents that solve a memorydependent counting task. Two types of neurocontrollers are evolved: networks of McCulloch-Pitts neuro...
Abstract. This philosophical paper discusses the benefits of describing the world as information, especially in the study of the evolution of life and cognition. Traditional studi...
In this paper we introduce new type of variational segmentation cost functions and associated active contour methods that are based on pairwise similarities or dissimilarities of t...
