Robotic agents' co-evolved communication struggles to transfer from 2D to 3D simulations

Researchers have investigated the transferability of communication mechanisms developed by co-evolved robotic agents from 2D simulations to 3D environments. Studies indicate that while some communication functions persist, the transfer is often partial and asymmetric, with performance gains plateauing or failing to reach the original levels. Factors such as episode time budget, social cues, and the underlying physics engine significantly influence the success of this sim-to-sim transfer, suggesting that ecological and navigational conditions are crucial for effective protocol preservation.

    The value of information and the emergence of communication in evolved e-puck robots

    We study when communication emerges between autonomous agents and what role an innate action selection architecture plays. Two e-puck robots, reconstructed in PyBullet from their Webots model and validated against it, must find a feeding zone that can only be detected when a robo…
