Research Project
New impulses for open-endedness in embodied collectives
The ZENiT research group hopes to contribute to several challenges in open-endedness in embodied collectives through this project and believes that this project can lead to new insights for the domains of evolutionary biology, collective behavior, artificial life, philosophy, machine learning, and robotics. The outcomes of the project include a publication of a position paper as well as a benchmark for open-endedness in embodied collectives, organization of international workshop in Konstanz and initiation of a later collaborative project.
