Evolutionary Robotics: Fundamentals and Applications

What Is Evolutionary Robotics
An embodied approach to artificial intelligence (AI), evolutionary robotics involves the creation of robots by the use of Darwinian concepts of natural selection during the design process. A behavioral goal can be used to guide the design of a robot or a subsystem of a robot, such as a neural controller. This design is then optimized. In most cases, designs are reviewed using computer simulations because it would be extremely expensive to physically fabricate thousands or millions of designs and test them in the actual world due to the amount of time, money, and risk involved.
