Social learning through evolution of language

Computer Science

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution

Abstract

This paper presents an approach to simulating the evolution of language in which communication is viewed as an emerging phenomenon with both genetic and social components. A model is presented in which a population of agents is able to evolve a shared grammatical language from a purely lexical one, with critical elements of the faculty of language developed as a result of the need to navigate in and exchange information about the environment.
