Abstract excerpt
Recent models of the interactions between learning and evolution show that learning increases the rate at which populations find optima in fixed environments. However, learning ability is only advantageous in variable environments. In this study, quantitative genetics models are used to investigate the effects of individual learning on evolution. Two models of populations of learning individuals are constructed...
