Music making, when considered as a leisure activity, is a cultural or social phenomenon t... Read More about Popular Music Making and Young People: Leisure, Education, and Industry.

An investigation of environmental influence on the benefits of adaptation mechanisms in evolutionary swarm robotics (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Steyven, A., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2017, July). An investigation of environmental influence on the benefits of adaptation mechanisms in evolutionary swarm robotics. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference - GECCO '17

A robotic swarm that is required to operate for long periods in a potentially unknown environment can use both evolution and individual learning methods in order to adapt. However, the role played by the environment in influencing the effectiveness o...
