Abstract. Mutual Information (MI) is a long studied measure of coding efficiency, and many attempts to apply it to population coding have been made. However, this is a computationa...
Abstract. Sigmoidal or radial transfer functions do not guarantee the best generalization nor fast learning of neural networks. Families of parameterized transfer functions provide...
Abstract. We provide an overview of the evolutionary approach to the emergence of artificial intelligence in embodied behavioral agents. This approach, also known as Evolutionary R...
While participating in the HARD track our first question was, what an IR-application should look like that takes into account preference meta-data from the user, without the need ...
