Articulated Swimming Creatures

Line: 122 to 122

Why are only 2 swim cycles used per optimization iteration? Is it possible that irregularities or problems would result for a creature after >2 cycles, especially given the dynamic forces given from the fluid simulation?

Contribution: The authors develop a system that balances between physical realism and generality in control strategies of aquatic animals. Manual tuning of parameters and required a priori knowledge of the animals' behaviour is minimized, allowing the system to generalize to arbitrary creature models.

Evaluation: Again, success of control strategies developed are based on subjective aesthetics of the resulting movements. In terms of accomplishing the task of path planning through the environment, the ability for the creature to follow a given path is also evaluated and was deemed a success.

Reproducibility: Exceptionally well detailed in terms of formulas, parameters and implementation.

Improvements: It would have been nice to see a quantitative evaluation of the system (i.e. statistical comparison to movement strategies of actual aquatic creatures)
