Abstract

This paper concerns the design of sensor topology and reaction controllers for autonomous mobile robots following a line. Artificial evolution (1,2) is used as the design methodology. Here, it is shown PBIL (3) is powerful enough to evolve autonomous creatures exhibiting complex behavior. Designing...
