We are interested in engineering smart machines that enable backtracking of emergent behaviors. Our SSNNS simulator consists of hand-picked tools to explore spiking neural network...

The Baldwin Effect is a very plausible, but unproven, biological theory concerning the power of learning to accelerate evolution. Simple computational models in the 1980’s gave...
A number of computational models of visual attention exist, but making comparisons is difficult due to the incompatible implementations and levels at which the simulations are con...

: Autonomous neural network systems typically require fast learning and good generalization performance, and there is potentially a trade-off between the two. The use of evolutiona...
Grid search and manual search are the most widely used strategies for hyper-parameter optimization. This paper shows empirically and theoretically that randomly chosen trials are ...
