Abstract
Predator-prey interactions are one of the most common
co-evolutionary dynamics in Nature. We consider a model
of the coevolution of prey appearance and predator
vision, where a successful result is visually apparent.
While using a neurophysiologically-based model of
vision and a rich developmental process for prey
patterning, we show that predator-prey coevolution can
maintain engagement. Backgrounds with large regional
differences generally lead to prey that appear as
mixtures of the regions. Finally, we find that
engagement between predators and prey is supported by
greater background complexity.
