Towards open-ended evolution in self-replicating molecular systems
In this review we discuss systems of self-replicating molecules in the context of the origin of life and the synthesis of de novo life. One of the important aspects of life is the ability to reproduce and evolve continuously. In this review we consider some of the prerequisites for obtaining unbounded evolution of self-replicating molecules and describe some recent advances in this field. While...
متن کاملTowards a Theory of Open-Ended Evolution
This paper is an effort to begin serious work toward a theory of open-ended evolution (OEE). We begin by defining OEE to mean continued innovation. With this intuitive definition in mind, we closely examine metrics for characterizing behavior of evolutionary systems and argue that none are sufficient for quantifying open-endedness, but there are still avenues to explore. Working from our relati...
متن کاملOpen-Ended Artificial Evolution
Of all the issues discussed at Alife VII: Looking Forward, Looking Backward, the issue of whether it was possible to create an artificial life system that exhibits open-ended evolution of novelty is by far the biggest. Of the 14 open problems settled on as a result of debate at the conference, some 6 are directly, or indirectly related to this issue. Most people equate open-ended evolution with...
متن کاملRequirements for Open-Ended Evolution in Natural and Artificial Systems
Open-ended evolutionary dynamics remains an elusive goal for artificial evolutionary systems. Many ideas exist in the biological literature beyond the basic Darwinian requirements of variation, differential reproduction and inheritance. I argue that these ideas can be seen as aspects of five fundamental requirements for open-ended evolution: (1) robustly reproductive individuals, (2) a medium a...
متن کاملReflecting on open-ended evolution
We describe a computationally reflective object-oriented architecture suitable for incorporating open-ended innovation and emergent entities into simulations. This allows emergent properties to be reified into objects. This requires modifying the model, and the metamodel, by incorporating novel classes and metaclasses dynamically. The classes and metaclasses are modified by including them in th...
