Case Study of Novelty, Complexity, and Adaptation in a Multicellular System
In this work, we track the co-evolution of novelty, complexity, and adaptation in a case study from the DISHTINY simulation system, which is designed to study the evolution of digital multicellularity.
Ecology, Spatial Structure, and Selection Pressure Induce Strong Signatures in Phylogenetic Structure
Here, we set out to assess (1) if spatial structure, ecology, and selection pressure leave detectable signatures in phylogenetic structure, (2) the extent, in particular, to which ecology can be detected and discerned in the presence of spatial structure, and (3) the extent to which these phylogenetic signatures generalize across evolutionary systems.
Trackable Island-model Genetic Algorithms at Wafer Scale
Emerging ML/AI hardware accelerators, like the 850, 000 processor Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE), hold great promise to scale up the capabilities of evolutionary computation.
Trackable Agent-based Evolution Models at Wafer Scale
Continuing improvements in computing hardware are poised to transform capabilities for in silico modeling of cross-scale phenomena underlying major open questions in evolutionary biology and artificial life, such as transitions in individuality, eco-evolutionary dynamics, and rare evolutionary events.
Methods to Estimate Cryptic Sequence Complexity
Complexity is a signature quality of interest in artificial life systems.
Runtime phylogenetic analysis enables extreme subsampling for test-based problems
We introduce phylogeny-informed subsampling, a new class of subsampling methods that exploit runtime phylogenetic analyses for solving test-based problems.
Phylogeny-informed fitness estimation
Thus far, phylogenetic analyses have primarily been applied as post-hoc analyses used to deepen our understanding of existing evolutionary algorithms.
Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Make Me a Match: Geometric, Variational, and Evolutionary Implications of Criteria for Tag Affinity
Genetic programming and artificial life systems commonly employ tag-matching schemes to determine interactions between model components.
SignalGP-Lite: Event Driven Genetic Programming Library for Large-Scale Artificial Life Applications
Event-driven genetic programming representations have been shown to outperform traditional imperative representations on interaction-intensive problems.
Exploring Evolved Multicellular Life Histories in a Open-Ended Digital Evolution System
These digital cells were allowed to form and replicate kin groups by selectively adjoining or expelling daughter cells.
Tag-based regulation of modules in genetic programming improves context-dependent problem solving
We demonstrate the functionality of tag-based regulation on a range of program synthesis problems.
