Complexity Measures: Open Questions and Novel Opportunities in the Automatic Design and Analysis of Robot Swarms

    Complexity measures and information theory metrics in general have recently been attracting the interest of multi-agent and robotics communities, owing to their capability of capturing relevant features of robot behaviors, while abstracting from implementation details. We believe that theories and tools from complex systems science and information theory may be fruitfully applied in the near future to support the automatic design of robot swarms and the analysis of their dynamics. In this paper we discuss opportunities and open questions in this scenario.

Hidden complexity in Life-like rules

    An alternative way to study the rules of life-like cellular automata is presented. The proposed perspective studies some multifractal and informational properties of Boolean functions behind these rules. Results from this approach challenge the traditional argument about the simplicity of Lifelike rules.
