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...

Random classification noise defeats all convex potential boosters
A broad class of boosting algorithms can be interpreted as performing coordinate-wise gradient descent to minimize some potential function of the margins of a data set. This class...
