Path Towards Multilevel Evolution of Robots
Multi-level evolution is a bottom-up robotic design paradigm which decomposes
the design problem into layered sub-tasks that involve concurrent search for
appropriate materials, component geometry and overall morphology. Each of the
three layers operate with the goal of building a library of diverse candidate
solutions which will be used either as building blocks for the layer above or
provided to the decision maker for final use. In this paper we provide a
theoretical discussion on the concepts and technologies that could potentially
be used as building blocks for this framework
