"Evolvability of Graph and Vector Field Embryogeny Representations",
IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, pp. 1272 - 1279, 2011.
Abstract
Most developmental representations for design optimization with evolutionary computation that have been described in the literature are graph-based mimicking the interactions observed in biological gene regulatory networks. Alternative methods that directly manipulate the dynamical control system for developmental processes have been termed Vector Field Embryogeny (VFE) and have been applied successfully to cell differentiation. In this paper, we...

"A Language for Formal Design of Embedded Intelligence Research Systems",
Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 2011.
Abstract
The construction of complex artifacts of artificial intelligence requires large-scale system integration and collaboration. System architectures are a central issue to enable this process. To develop these, hypotheses must be formulated, validated and evolved. We therefore present Systematica 2D, a formalism suitable for both flexible description of hierarchical architecture concepts as well as functional design of the resulting system integratio...

"Making Sense of Words through the Eyes of a Child",
University Bielefeld, 2011.
Abstract
Equipping machines with the ability to understand and use natural language is a difficult task. One aspect underlying this task is the acquisition of language semantics or – to narrow the problem even more – the learning of individual word meanings. A machine, which copes with this problem, has to learn the meaning of a word based on observations of the word in different contexts. Children perform marvelously well in this task. Even though it...

"Evolutionary Optimization of the Robustness and Evolvability of Design Solutions",
Technische Universität Darmstadt, 2011.
Abstract
In the case of an optimization subject to several environmental conditions, conventional optimizations can either provide several specialized solutions or a single robust solution with usually lower peak performance. This thesis proposes “evolvability” as an alternative optimization objective, in order to generate design solutions, which can be adapted to different conditions through small and cheap changes. Concepts of evolvability in evolut...

"Reward-based learning of optimal cue integration in audio and visual depth estimation",
Proceedings of ICAR 2011, 2011.
Abstract
Many real-world applications in robotics have to deal with imprecisions and noise when using only a single information source for computation. Therefore making use of additional cues or sensors is often the method of choice. One examples considered in this paper is depth estimation where multiple visual and auditory cues can be combined to increase precision and robustness of the final estimates. Rather than using a weighted average of the indivi...

Journal of Neuroscience, vol. 31, no. 21, pp. 7729-7736, 2011.
Abstract
Growing evidence from electrophysiological data in animal and human studies suggests that multisensory interaction is not exclusively a higher-order process, but also takes place in primary sensory cortices. Such early multisensory interaction is thought to be mediated by means of phase resetting. The presentation of a stimulus to one sensory modality resets the phase of ongoing oscillations in another modality such that processing in the latter ...

"Learning Words: Comparing Two-Year-Olds' Learning Success in Dyadic and Triadic Teaching Situaitons Embedded in Familiar and Unfamiliar Contexts",
Univertity of Bielefeld, 2011.
Abstract
This thesis is motivated by the question whether it is possible to use a teaching technique created for animals to propagate children’s learning. I will present two studies designed to evaluate children’s learning success in a word learning scenario and their performance while learning frames, i.e. pragmatic routines. The first study is based on a teaching technique called model/rival training that had been developed by Pepperberg (2002) with...

Proceedings of the 2011 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2011.
Abstract
Evolutionary design optimization for improving the performance of real world objects, like e.g. car shapes in the context of aerodynamic efficiency, usually depends on a wellbalanced combination of representation, optimizer and design evaluation method. Shape representation requires a fair trade-off between minimum number of design parameters and design flexibility which likewise guarantees a good optimization convergence while allowing manifold ...
