"4064","Simulating development in a real robot: on the concurrent increase of sensory, motor, and neural complexity","We present a quantitative investigation on the effects of a discrete developmental progression on the acquisition of a foveation behavior by a robotic hand-arm-eyes system. Development is simulated by (a) increasing the resolution of visual and tactile systems, (b) freezing and freeing mechanical degrees of freedom, and (c) adding neuronal units to the neural control architecture. Our experimental results show that a system starting with a low-resolution sensory system, a low precision motor system, and a low complexity neural structure, learns faster that a system which is more complex at the beginning.","http://cogprints.org/4064/","Gomez, Gabriel and Lungarella, Max and Eggenberger Hotz, Peter and Matsushita, Kojiro and Pfeifer, Rolf","Berthouze, Luc and Kozima, Hideki and Prince, Christopher G. and Sandini, Giulio and Stojanov, Georgi and Metta, Giorgio and Balkenius, Christian","       <span class=\"person_name\">Gomez, Gabriel</span> and <span class=\"person_name\">Lungarella, Max</span> and <span class=\"person_name\">Eggenberger Hotz, Peter</span> and <span class=\"person_name\">Matsushita, Kojiro</span> and <span class=\"person_name\">Pfeifer, Rolf</span>     (2004)  <a href=\"http://cogprints.org/4064/\"><em>Simulating development in a real robot: on the concurrent increase of sensory, motor, and neural complexity.</em></a>       [Conference Paper]           ","","2004"
