On the Schedule for Morphological Development of Evolved Modular Soft Robots

, 2022
Development is fundamental for living beings. As robots are often designed to mimic biological organisms, development is believed to be crucial for achieving successful results in robotic agents, as well. What is not clear, though, is the most appropriate scheduling for development.
