We evolved spiking neural network controllers for simple animats, allowing for these networks to change topologies and weights during evolution. The animats’ task was to discern one correct pattern (emitted from target objects) amongst other different wrong patterns (emitted from distractor objects), by navigating towards targets and avoiding distractors in a 2D world. Patterns were emitted with variable silences between signals of the same pattern in the attempt of creating a state memory. We analyse the network that is able to accomplish the task perfectly for patterns consisting of two signals, with 4 interneurons, maintaining its state (although not infinitely) thanks to the recurrent connections.
