From Animals to Animats 2: Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Simulation of Adaptive Behavior

More than sixty contributions in From Animals to Animats 2 by researchers in ethology, ecology, cybernetics, artificial intelligence, robotics, and related fields investigate behaviors and the underlying mechanisms that allow animals and, potentially, robots to adapt and survive in uncertain environments. Topics covered The Animat Approach to Adaptive Behavior * Perception and Motor Control * Action Selection and Behavioral Sequences * Cognitive Maps and Internal World Models * Learning * Evolution * Collective Behavior
