  • Abstract
    For living organisms, the robustness property is capital. For almost all of them, robustness rhymes with self-repairing. Indeed, organisms are subject to various injuries brought by the environment. To maintain their integrity, organisms are able to regenerate dead parts of themselves. This mechanism, commonly named self-repairing, is interesting to reproduce. Many works exist about self-repairing in robotics and electronics but fewer are in our domain of interest, artificial embryogenesis. In this paper, we show the self-repairing abilities of our model, Cell2Organ, designed to generate artificial creatures for artificial worlds. This model has previously been presented in.
