- Evolutionary search algorithm used to evolve embryo populations through development, selection, and mutation stages across 1000 generations.
- Traditional evolutionary framework focused on genetic mutation and selection; paper argues for expansion to include physiological and cellular problem-solving without requiring goal-directedness at large scale.
