The School of Cognitive and Computing Sciences (COGS) in the University of Sussex at Brighton is home to one of the world's largest groups of researchers studying artificial evolutionary and adaptive systems. Such work is often described using names such as Artificial Life, Evolutionary Computation, and Adaptive Behavior research.

The Mobile Robots Group is a loose collection of staff and students who share a broad approach to AI: intelligence will, in our opinion, be best understood through the construction of agents which live autonomously in the real world, using non-symbolic-logical tools: `behaviour-based' architectures, neural networks, genetic algorithms, ethology, control theory.
<http://www.dai.ed.ac.uk/groups/mrg/>
The net was conceived by Janet Halperin, of the University of Toronto's Ethology department. Janet was working with Siamese Fighting Fish and looking for a way to model the various kinds of conditioning behaviour observed in experiments with this species. They're useful in this respect, because they do reliably exhibit a "fighting display", which can be measured fairly easily

This site provides information on research and current work being carried out worldwide on Learning Classifier Systems. Much of what it available on this site derives from information gleaned for my own research work, and from contributions by others. In particular, I would like to acknowledge contributions and kind words from Stewart Wilson and suggestions from Tim Kovacs.

I'm a computer scientist with the US Navy's AI Research Center, focusing on machine learning (ML) and case-based reasoning (CBR). I've helped procure grants for 6.1 (basic) and 6.2 (more applied) contracts for developing our AI expertise and transitioning systems for use in Navy tasks, and am the P.I. for our ONR 6.2 grant on case-based reasoning. I serve the ML and CBR communities on journal boards (MLj, JAIR, Applied Intelligence), program committees, and as a reviewer.

SANS was established in 1987 at the Department of Numerical Analysis and Computing Science (NADA), the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). The scope of its research ranges from the design and evaluation of artificial neural network algorithms to realistic modelling of biological neuronal networks.

Bien que le principe d?un animal artificiel fut envisagé par L. Booker, le terme d?animat fut mentionné pour la première fois par S. Wilson lors de la première conférence internationale sur les algorithmes génétiques en 1985. Il y présenta son animat, animal artificiel, capable de découvrir de la nourriture au milieu d?arbres dans un monde discret de 18*58 cases.

I am presently working as a computational biologist in the Department of Artificial Intelligence (DAI) at the University of Edinburgh. My research involves investigation of perceptual mechanisms via the construction and testing of bionic ("life"-"like") models -- e.g., this DAI 6 DOF bionic sensorhead mounted aboard a mobile robot. A short list of publications on my work modelling active acoustic localisation mechanisms is available on-line.

I'm currently running an EPSRC-funded research project entitled ``An Investigation of Evoltuionary Scheduling''. This aims to study why and how well GA-based methods of scheduling work, and to extend current techniques in various directions to make them more useful for the real world. There are already a fair number of practical examples, but most of the proper experimental studies have been confined to academic benchmark sets.

I am studying the swimming of lampreys. A lamprey is a kind of fish which (similarly to eels) project itself in water by undulation of its body, without use of fins. The undulation is a traveling wave propagating from head to tail. Because their nervous system is relatively simple and robust, lampreys have been extensively studied by neurobiologists

We describe a series of experiments in generating traditional musical harmony using Genetic Algorithms. We argue that the encoding of explicit domain knowledge in these algorithms is helpful in producing a reasonable result, and discuss some problems which are specific to the musical domain.
