A Seth ,Evolutionary Robotics, 1998 ,Springer
This paper describes a new approach for promoting the evolution of relatively complex behaviours in evolutionary robotics, based on the use of noise in simulation. A homing navigation behaviour is evolved (in simulation) for the Khepera mobile robot, and it is
