Abstract

We introduce an evolutionary approach to on-line learning for mobile robot control using reconfigurable hardware. We use genetic programming as an evolutionary engine. Control programs are encoded in tree structure. Genetic operators, such as node mutation, adapt the program trees based on a set of training cases. This paper discusses the advantages and constraints of the evolvable hardware approach to robot learning and describes a FPGA implementation of the presented genetic programming method.
