Evolutionary acquisition of complex behaviors through intelligent composite motion control

In this paper the intelligent composite motion control, ICMC, is introduced as a method for evolutionary acquisition of complex behaviors. The paper describes how adaptive robot behavior acquisition is achieved by the presented method in evolutionary manner. The methodology does not simply aim at ad hoc execution of given tasks but acquisition of complex behaviors that can be effectively utilized to more complex behaviors. The ICMC is then applied to the cooperative behavior realization problem in robot soccer to demonstrate the acquisition process.
