We are attending #ICMIND in #Xiamen, China. We'll present or work on pleiotropy in body-brain evolution of simulated agents. 👉🏼 medvet.inginf.units.it/publi…

Great and inspiring keynote at ALIFE-CIS by @mnzluca on the foundational work by Nils Barricelli, an italian-norwegian researcher pioneering artificial life
@HirokiSayama @NehanivCL – at Trondheim, Norway

🤖 Looking at these robot navigation tasks - TE captures the full trajectory, not just endpoints.
The archives reveal exactly where successful robots walked, giving much better insights than traditional ME! 🔍

In March 2025 I am starting a Planetary Geology course at @UniTrieste. It is an MSc course, but students of all walks are welcome. It will be taught in English. Please help spread the word in the neighboring regions (also in Croatia, Slovenia, Austria...). – at Trieste, Friuli-Venezia Giulia
Today we hosted Carlos M. Fonseca from #cisuc @UnivdeCoimbra, currently visiting @UniTrieste for a relaxed exchange of research ideas.

What if robots could specialize like living organisms? 🧠
In our new paper, we explore how totipotency—a trait of living cells—can aid body-brain co-evolution in modular soft robots.
Curious how Hebbian learning unlocks modular specialization? 🧵

Our just-published review article about "robots that evolve on demand".
With colleagues Frank Fish, Robert Baines, and @TheFaboratory's director Rebecca Kramer-Bottiglio.

We just welcomed our new lab member 🤖🐩 (still unnamed...). Together with friends from the #IndustrialAutomationLab, this guy will help us do more cutting-edge #research on data-driven/learning-based control. We thank @DiaUnits for the support!

📢 Second Call for Papers: EvoStar 2025 📢
📆 Submission Deadline: November 1, 2024
📌 Conference Dates: April 23-25, 2025
🇮🇹 Venue: Trieste, Italy
Accepted papers will be published in Springer Nature’s LNCS series. 📚✨
Follow the updates: evostar.org/2025/
@pbmandrab presented our study on "Cooperation in Evolved Modular Soft 🤖 Robots": identical soft agents can be evolved to 🫱🏼🫲🏻collectively perform a task that is undoable by single agents. Many questions and ideas for further research from #wivace2024! 👉🏼 medvet.inginf.units.it/publi…
A fruitful collaboration between @Unibo and @DiaUnits-@UniTrieste. Much more successful than this other collaboration: youtube.com/watch?v=Ne8SboPV…
We are in 🇧🇪#Namur at #wivace2024 where @el_saliby just presented our work on "Factors Impacting 🏞️Landscape Ruggedness in 🤖Control Problems" (👉🏼 medvet.inginf.units.it/publi…): brilliant presentation, bravissimo the speaker!
This was the first conference talk by @el_saliby, who is completing his master degree at @DiaUnits in weeks. The paper is a groupwork by @GNadizar, @EricaSalvato1, @SilverHaxt, and @EricMedvetTs. #bravitutti! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Second very full and exciting day of @GeccoConf 🦎
I found the official mascotte and annoyed it for multiple pics 🐨
I presented our nice paper from @EralLabTs 🎤
I had a nice dinner with the graph GP gang 🥘
And I finally took my traditional badge pic with @gpietrop_ ✨️ – at Melbourne, Victoria

Test cases for training #GeneticProgramming agents are difficult + costly to generate 🤯💸
What if we could leverage #LargeLanguageModels for this task? 💡
We tried it in our @GeccoConf paper 👉 giorgia-nadizar.github.io/#/…
👀 Spoiler: adding curriculum learning works wonders 💥
