A selectionist mechanism for autonomous behavior acquisition

The paper explores a selectionist approach for the autonomous acquisition of new behavior by a robot as it is attempting to stay viable in an ecosystem in which there are increasing pressures. The approach is based on a random exploration and subsequent selection of possible couplings between sensory quantities, actuator quantities, and internal motivational states. The paper gives some examples of behavioral acquisition from simulation experiments.
