abstract = "Previous work on evolving distributed control software
for modular robots has resulted in solutions that do
not generalise well to unseen test cases. In this work,
we seek general solutions to an entire space of test
cases. Each test case is a specific world configuration
with a passage through which the modular robot must
move. The space of test cases is extremely large, so a
given training set can only be a sparse sample of this
space. We look at several approaches for dealing with
the problem of determining an effective training set:
using a fixed set throughout a run, sampling randomly
at each generation, and using coevolutionary approaches
to evolve a population of test worlds. For this
problem, random sampling outperformed the fixed
sampling technique and did at least as well as the
coevolutionary techniques we considered",
