Traditional robotics that uses Artificial Intelligence planning techniques to program robot behaviors works toward the first, while the Autonomous Robotics approach suggest that the second is a possibility. The robots built according to this approach should be able to adapt to both uncertain and incomplete information in constantly changing environments. At least two different techniques to reach this goal can be identified. One is to imitate the learning process of a single natural organism. Another, called Evolutionary Robotics, is to reproduce the phylogenetic evolution on populations of robots. Evolutionary Robotics lets a simulated evolution process develop adaptive robots. By applying selective reproduction on a population of robots the simulated evolution process is directly inspired by the Darwinian evolution theory.

Artificial life - Definition Artificial life , also known as alife or a-life , is the study of life through the use of human-made analogs of living systems. Computer scientist Christopher Langton coined the term in the late when he held the first "International Conference on the Synthesis and Simulation of Living Systems" (otherwise known as Artificial Life I) at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in . His official conference announcement was the earliest description of a field which had previously barely existed: Artificial life is the study of artificial systems that exhibit behavior characteristic of natural living systems. It is the quest to explain life in any of its possible manifestations, without restriction to the particular examples that have evolved on earth. This includes biological and chemical experiments, computer simulations, and purely theoretical endeavors. Processes occuring on molecular, social, and evolutionary scales are subject to investigation. The ultimate goal is to extract the logical form of living systems. Microelectronic technology and genetic engineering will soon give us the capability to create new life forms in silico as well as in vitro , This capacity will present humanity with the most far-reaching technical,theoretical and ethical challenges it has ever confronted. The time seems appropriate for a gathering of those involved in attempts simulate or synthesize aspects of living systems.

ISCID Encyclopedia of Science and Philosophy BETA Make Entry Become an Editor Most Popular: ( Help Artificial Life Artificial Life, or Alife, is an area of research that is based on emergent characteristics of complex systems and attempts to see how detailed and complicated properties can be explained and engineered with simple rules of evolution . Through getting computers and software to simulate living systems, it tries to understand, explain and determine the ways they behave like natural living organisms. The most common method employed in Alife research is the cellular automata Artificial Life does overlap with Artificial Intelligence but the two areas are very different in their approach and history. Artificial Life is concerned with specific life-oriented algorithm s such as genetic algorithms which can mimic nature and its law s and therefore relates more to biology, whereas Artificial Intelligence tends to look at how human intelligence can be replicated, therefore relating more to psychology. Just as artificial intelligence is broken down into major camps, the Strong and Weak versions, so is artificial life. The difference between the camps is mainly a philosophical one, with the critical issue surrounding the status of “organisms” in alife systems. Strong artificial life proponents believe that they are genuinely creating life: that all the conditions required in a robust definition of life are being met. Weak artificial life proponents, on the other hand, insist that no real life is being created; rather, the alife systems are merely simulating life not exemplifying it. The debate is largely definitional: what constitutes life. For the Strong Alife proponents, life is multiply realizable and does not require the particular features of biological life.

Profile $render("hypertabs","hypertab"); By Victoria Gill Science reporter, BBC News Scientists in the US have succeeded in developing the first living cell to be controlled entirely by synthetic DNA. The researchers constructed a bacterium's "genetic software" and transplanted it into a host cell. The resulting microbe then looked and behaved like the species "dictated" by the synthetic DNA. The advance, published in Science, has been hailed as a scientific landmark, but critics say there are dangers posed by synthetic organisms. Some also suggest that the potential benefits of the technology have been over-stated.
