Interim report on cultural learning in subCULTtron

In this document, we will report on the intermediate stage of our efforts towards the evolution of signalling/language, including artificial evolution algorithms to develop communication/signalling between robots, in different conditions. We will report our progress towards the establishment of long-term learning and introduce algorithms for sharing and storing information in parts of the subCULTron system, and how this information can be used.

The deliverable reports about the development, integration and testing of the mechatronics system. It will be based on Deliverables 1 and 2. It will detail hardware and middleware development (Task 1.2), integration with electric sensing (D3) and energy management systems (D4) and the testing of the early prototype (Milestone1). Preliminary assessment of system characteristics will be reported.

Final report on cultural learning in subCULTtron

Reporting implementation and evolution of signalling/language. Employment of artificial evolution algorithms to develop communication/signalling between agents in noisy or turbulent or turbid waters in order to allow communication by patterns that exploit several communication/sensing channels in parallel. Reporting on the establishment of long-term learning, that is the development of software for sharing of information in the subCULTron system between groups of aMussels, to study robustness/capacity of the collective memory formed.

Concluding report on project management activities

This report will give an overview over the management activities during the project run-time, in particular the administration and documentation of regular meetings, distribution of financial contributions and amendments to the grant agreement.

Traditional measurements vs. subCULTron in a aquaculture

4.1 It will consist in a document with video file(s) attached. The first part is dedicated to the description and the results of the system integration activities needed to prepare the first demonstration, that will occur in a mussel aquaculture farm. The capability of the heterogeneous swarm system (made of aMussels, aFish and aPads) to acquire environmental data will be compared with traditional data acquisition. Video taken during the experiment will be uploaded also in the project web site. A final section will present the validation criteria developed for the task 4.4

First report: Bio-inspired behaviour in agents and groups

First report Bioinspired behavior in agents and groups Thisreport will provide a summary of behavioral algorithmic developmentsperformed taking into account the specifities of the electric sensingmodality and gainfully exploiting insights from biology This firstreport will be chiefly concerned with theoretical aspects and numericalsimulation

Algorithms for consensus and dynamic topology control

This deliverable in a form of a report will document the developed consensus algorithms that allow selforganization within the system

Final report: Bio-inspired behaviour in agents and groups

Final report: Bio-inspired behavior in agents and groups. Building upon the findings reported in the aforementioned first report, the developed algorithms will be enhanced and adjusted for use in the field. Issues highlighted by field testing will lead to further adjustments. The final behavioral algorithms and their analysis will be provided in the final report.

The deliverable D21 reports on programsalgorithms for individual agentsIt includes modelstudy of the interplay of geneshormonesneuronsmemes inevolutionary adaptation cultural selforganisation and social homeostasis

Report on the evolution of culture

Report on the evolution of signalling/language that to develops patterns of communication/signalling between aMussels, aFish and aPads in noisy, turbulent and turbid waters. Reporting on evolution of culture that is that information is aggregated in the collective memory to actively improve aMussels. We will analyze subculture dynamics and deme-based development of the collective.
