on: Models by Wolfgang Banzhaf on gene regulation models and artificial life, see http://ls11-www.cs.uni-dortmund.de/people/banzhaf/publications_overview.html. His models for gene regulation are spread out over several papers. One such paper is Kuo, P.D., Leier, A. and Banzhaf, W. 2004. Evolving dynamics in an artificial regulatory network model. In Yao, X., Burke, E., Lozano, J.A., Smith, J., Merelo-Guervos, J.J., Bullinaria, J.A., Rowe, J., Tino, P., Kaban, A., Schwefel, H.-P., editors, Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Vol. 3242, Springer-Verlag [PDF] from http://web.cs.mun.ca/~kuo/. or Astor JC, Adami C. 2000. A developmental model for the evolution of artificial neural networks. Artificial Life 6(3):189-218. and Hampton AH, Adami C. 2004. Evolution of robust developmental neural networks. Artificial Life 9. Presentation: [PDF] at 3.15: Dene Farrell (on A Genomic Regulatory Network for Development, EH Davidson, JP Rast, et al. (2002). Science 295, 1669). PDF |
| Jan. 20: Stefan Haeusler Models by Josh Bongard for gene regulation networks and artificial life: see http://www.mae.cornell.edu/bongard/ His model for gene regulation is discussed a little bit in several of his papers, e.g. in: Bongard, J. C. (2002) Evolving Modular Genetic Regulatory Networks, in Proceedings of the IEEE 2002 Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC2002), IEEE Press, pp. 1872-1877. A little more details can be found in: PhD Thesis, University of Zurich, Incremental Approaches to the Combined Evolution of a Robot's Body and Brain. Perhaps some of his other papers contain even more details about his model for gene regulation. |
