Mechanisms of Adaptation to Periodic Environmental Change
Despite Darwin’s pluralistic view that “natural selection has been the main, but not the exclusive means of modification” (Darwin, 1872) (quoted in (Lewontin and Gould, 1979)), subsequent major developments in evolutionary biology such as the theories of natural selection, the modern synthesis, and molecular neo-darwinism have biased scientific explanations of evolution towards gene-centric the...
متن کاملOn-line Robot Adaptation to Environmental Change
Robots performing tasks constantly encounter changing environmental conditions. These changes in the environment vary from the dramatic, such as rearrangement of furniture, to the subtle, such as a burnt out light bulb or a different carpeting. We do not recognize many of these changes, especially subtle changes, but robots do. These changes often lead to the failure of robots. In this thesis, ...
متن کاملModifying and reacting to the environmental pH drives bacterial interactions
Microbes usually exist in communities consisting of myriad different but interacting species. These interactions are typically mediated through environmental modifications; microbes change the environment by taking up resources and excreting metabolites, which affects the growth of both themselves and also other microbes. A very common environmental modification is a change of the environmental...
متن کاملAdaptation to slow environmental change, with apparent anticipation of selection.
We investigate a genetic model of a large population of sexual organisms in a changing environment. The organisms are subject to stabilising selection on a quantitative trait, with environmental change causing the fitness optimum to move. When the fitness optimum moves slowly, adaptation to the changing environment occurs by means of reasonably well-separated substitutions at the loci controlli...
متن کاملEnvironmental change adaptation for mobile robot navigation
Most of existing robot learning methods have considered the environment where their robots work unchanged, therefore, the robots have to learn from scratch if they encounter new environments. This paper proposes a method which adapts robots to environmental changes by efficiently transferring a learned policy in the previous environments into a new one and effectively modifying it to cope with ...
