around "testing" the genes... that would help ;)


I like the multiple robot idea.  If each robot used a simulated annealing
algorithm instead of a GA this would require less computation since it would be
working on one chromosome instead of a population.  Each robot could advertise its
fitness through its IR port.  Then you could have some sort of natural selection
and trading of genetic material.

(...) I've pondered it, though not actually done anything. The things to remember are that GAs need to do fitness testing, and the larger the population that you can do fitness tests on the better. On a big old PC, it's easy to do lots and lots of (...) (25 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
