Jean Disset (équipe VORTEX), nous présentera ses travaux sur "Evolved Developmental Strategies of Artificial Multicellular Organisms".

Abstract: I will present the use of a new computationaly efficient 3D physics model for the simulation of cells in a virtual aquatic world. Whil e allowing for the discovery of interesting behaviors through the addition of new degrees of freedom compared to traditional simple 2D evo-devo models, this 3D center-based physics engine and its associated virtual world also comes with its drawbacks when applied to evolutionnary experiments: larger search space and numerous local optima. We will discuss how techniques such as a novelty metric, adapted to our evo-devo matter, dramatically improves the outcome of the evolutionary runs.
