Abstract(in English) To optimize the group performance, it is important both the concept of competition and sharing. Therefore, this paper presents the species fitness method that has both advantages between the group fitness method and the individual fitness method by sharing the individual performance of the agents belongs to the same species that has same chromosome. We show the comparative experiments on the evolutionary simulation of a foraging task in a group among the group fitness, individual fitness, and the species fitness method. As the interaction among the agents, four kinds of species on the communication ability whether the agent can send or receive the signal for food are evolved.
