The Evolutionary Emergence of Language: Modelling Language-Physiology Coevolution
A feature of current computational models of language evolution is that the individuals in later populations are not structurally, ‘physiologically’, different from those in the first. Evolution may be working on the language itself, as learned by agents which do not evolve, or on an innate communication scheme. A number of models specifically demonstrate self-organisation of communication schemes and grammars in populations that are already capable of language.
