Abstract:Digital evolution is a branch of artificial life in which self-replicating computer programs—digital organisms—mutate and evolve within a user-defined computational environment. In spite of its value in biology, we still lack an up-to-date and comprehensive database on digital organisms resulting from evolution experiments. Therefore, we have developed an ontology-based semantic database—avidaDB—and an R package—avidaR—that provides users of the R programming language with an easy-to-use tool for performing co… Show more
