    Artykuł przedstawia model teoretyczny wyjaśniający wpływ poczucia samoskuteczności na eskalację zaangażowania wśród przedsiębiorców. Autorzy postulują, że rozbieżność pomiędzy poziomem przekonań dotyczących własnej skuteczności a faktyczną skutecznością tworzy lukę skuteczności. Początkujący przedsiębiorcy w związku z ich niewielkim doświadczniem są szczególnie narażeni na ryzyko eskalacji zaangażowania, gdyż cechują się ograniczonymi...

  • Evolution of Animats Following a Moving Target in an Artificial Ecosystem

    Publication

    - Year 2014

    Many biological animals, even microscopically small, are able to track moving sources of food. In this paper, we investigate the emergence of such behavior in artificial animals (animats) in a 2-dimensional simulated liquid environment. These "predators" are controlled by evolving artificial gene regulatory networks encoded in linear genomes. The fate of the predators is determined only by their ability to gather food and reproduce—no...
