Abstract:Engineering design has traditionally involved human engineers manually creating and iterating on designs based on their expertise and knowledge. Bio-inspired Evolutionary Development (EvoDevo) generative algorithms aim to explore a much larger design space that may not have ever been considered by human engineers. However, for complex systems, the designer is often required to start the EvoDevo process with an initial design solution (seed) which the development process will optimize. The question is will a re… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
