The ability to predict the future is in some cases seen as a form of intelligence. Our brains are adjusted so that they can quickly compare the different outcomes of our actions. How do they do this?
Cully et al. show that robots can learn to recover quickly from physical damage. The underlying idea is that they must adopt a new strategy to be able to continue. This looks like instinct, but what the robots do is compare their previously learned strategies with each other so that the best strategy is chosen.
Three things are needed to make an accurate prediction about your behavior: experience, understanding how the world works and being able to judge how your own actions contrast with those of others.
Previous studies state that the ability to plan depends on the ability to program a representation of the world in a robot. If this succeeds, how can future actions be looked up quickly and efficiently?
In the research by Cully et al., The robots were asked to find the best strategy after being damaged. What happened was that robots, before they were damaged, had a baseline with possible solutions. After the damage, the possible movements were tried before they decided which behavior would best compensate for the damage.
Because of the embodiment of the robot, there are only a limited number of actions that can be performed the robot. The authors looked at all kinds of actions that a robot could perform and looked at the suitability of every motor movement. This was, for example, measured in "distance that the robot can travel". The robots were able to learn the new actions through special-purpose machine-learning algorithms.
The special-purpose machine-learning algorithms are not the same as the cognitive systems that we have, but both are strongly limited by embodiment. What you can and cannot do with your body is something you have to learn through experience and trial and error .
It is very difficult to imitate the functioning of our brains: the aforementioned algorithm was designed by researchers, while the way in which our brains have adjusted themselves is the result of millions of years of survival of the fittest . In the past it has not been possible to imitate our brains in terms of fast, intuitive and situation-specific behavior. That is why it is better to focus on adaptive and evolutionary algorithms.

Using and finding summaries, study notes en practice exams on JoHo WorldSupporter
There are several ways to navigate the large amount of summaries, study notes en practice exams on JoHo WorldSupporter.
- Starting Pages: for some fields of study and some university curricula editors have created (start) magazines where customised selections of summaries are put together to smoothen navigation. When you have found a magazine of your likings, add that page to your favorites so you can easily go to that starting point directly from your profile during future visits. Below you will find some start magazines per field of study
- Use the menu above every page to go to one of the main starting pages
- Tags & Taxonomy: gives you insight in the amount of summaries that are tagged by authors on specific subjects. This type of navigation can help find summaries that you could have missed when just using the search tools. Tags are organised per field of study and per study institution. Note: not all content is tagged thoroughly, so when this approach doesn't give the results you were looking for, please check the search tool as back up
- Follow authors or (study) organizations: by following individual users, authors and your study organizations you are likely to discover more relevant study materials.
- Search tool : 'quick & dirty'- not very elegant but the fastest way to find a specific summary of a book or study assistance with a specific course or subject. The search tool is also available at the bottom of most pages
