Abstract

In the paper a synthesis of developmental and evolutionary modeling is proposed. The synthesis is demonstrated by adaptive autonomous agents capable of developing, learning, and evolving in an artificial environment. The main merits of the proposed synthesis is a simplification of the genetic information and environmental embodiment. The created behaviors of light following and obstacle avoidance are simple, but verify the approach with a capability to scale up the model.
