FLHex: a flapped-paddle hexapod for all-terrain amphibious locomotion [PDF]
Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences: Technical Sciences, 2021 This paper presents the design of a versatile mechanism that can enable new directions in amphibious, all-terrain locomotion. The simple, passive, flapped-paddle can be integrated with several structures that are well-suited for locomotion in terrestrial

A Biologically Inspired Network Design Model [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2015 AbstractA network design problem is to select a subset of links in a transport network that satisfy passengers or cargo transportation demands while minimizing the overall costs of the transportation. We propose a mathematical model of the foraging behaviour of slime mould P.

Design of Evolvable Biologically Inspired Classifiers [PDF]
, 2011 Complex systems are emergent, self-organizing and adaptive systems. They are pervasive in nature and usually hard to analyze or understand. Often they appear intelligent and show favorable properties such as resilience and anticipation. In this paper we describe a classifier model inspired by complex systems theory.
