We now have a great way to create files regarding the Robot’s brain, along with loading files of previous brains created! We wanted to be able to store into text files the number of altControls a random brain used, the … Continue reading →

After studying our results yesterday and reading a Graph Crossover Article to better our understanding of the process we are trying to make, we decided to calculate our minimum score’s a different way! Our new calculations consisted of taking the … Continue reading →

We have finally made it to the point of running multiple experiments after another for our robots! In order to get to this point, we added some important methods into our evolutionary algorithm. The steps we followed are: Initialize the … Continue reading →

Yesterday (7/12/2011) we had used the DOT language and graphviz to create a simple directed graph of one of our random brain’s. Today, we have updated these graphs. This first graph shown below represents our basic working brain of the robot. … Continue reading →

While researching this summer I have been extending my knowledge on the parallel language in java, which has led into learning about the occam-pi language. This is a parallel language that allows programs to in a sense multi-task; they can … Continue reading →

As of Wednesday(07/06/2011) we had our simulator working to where we spit out a score for the robot on how well “it did”. The score keeps track of the Lifetime of the robot (how long it was moving around in … Continue reading →

As am I getting back into the swing of writing code in java once again, I am expanding my coding skills by adding bounding boxes around all of the possible lights in each room. At first, we wanted to create … Continue reading →
