A novel generative encoding for exploiting neural network sensor and output geometry
A significant problem for evolving artificial neural networks is that the physical arrangement of sensors and effectors is invisible to the evolutionary algorithm. For example,...

Indirectly Encoding Neural Plasticity as a Pattern of Local Rules
Biological brains can adapt and learn from past experience. In neuroevolution, i.e. evolving artificial neural networks (ANNs), one way that agents controlled by ANNs can evolve t...
