Robot phylogenetics

Published: 07 July 2010 Publication History

Abstract

Bioinformatics techniques are introduced for the analysis of evolutionary search. These techniques are tested on buildable robots evolved in a virtual simulator for a locomotion task. By using bioinformatic visualizations properties of evolutionary search and relatedness between differing robot genotypes and phenotypes can be examined.
