Evolutionary self-assembling swarm robots using genetic programming

Abstract

Nowadays, self-assembling swarm robots are studied by many researchers because of their advantages such as high efficiency, stable, scalability. However, there are still several problems for applying practical fields in real world. In this paper, we design a new self-assembling swarm robots control algorithm with evolution to overcome the limitations. The main idea is that the oscillators contained in each module are defined by genetic programming.
