View source for Evolutionary and Probabilistic Robotics Experiments

The aim of our efforts under this project
is to study the topics of Probabilistic and Evolutionary Robotics
utilizing the Behavior-Based Robotics architectures and methods
of Evolutionary Design for simultaneous evolution of robot morphology 
and controllers. The experiments are performed both in simulation
and on real robots. As part of this wider theme, we perform various
specific experiments that are focused on detailed partial problems
as well as cooperate with partners who share some of our interests.
