... I'm not sure NEAT would solve this task with no problem. It seems that since NEAT can evolve topologies, it has a good shot at finding a more efficient...
... Sorry I didn't get to this question for a while, I kind of got lost in the numerous threads. It's too bad this newsgroup isn't threaded. I am thinking to...
... <snip> It you read these messages at groups.yahoo.com, it is (optionally) threaded. At the upper right there is a choice between date & threaded. Just...
I was wondering if anyone here had thought of or even maybe implemented NEAT for evolving anything non-neural? (Get it...NEAT without the N is EAT?..ok maybe...
... When I was writing that modularity overview, I thought it might be nice to use something along the lines of NEAT to evolve genotype-phenotype maps. I cited...
whats the NK function? ... k e n n o n b a l l o u msc natural computation : the university of birmingham http://studentweb.cs.bham.ac.uk/~msc92klb/...
... Actually I think I misspoke slightly, I'm referring to an NK landscape. An NK landscape is an approximation for the very rugged search spaces that tend to...
Hey all, People have been steadily trickling in to the group for the past few weeks, so I just wanted to officially welcome those who've recently joined. I'm...
... Hey Derek, I work with NEAT! Just kidding...but I wanted to ask you about your project... ... So do you foresee your system being used by people with...
Hello, I am currently working with NEAT. I am trying to alter the windows version to do some color recognition. Primarily, my goal is to be able to use the ...
I am working with NEAT to try to get a common play space to use, but that is it right now. I hope to be able to use it more soon. Hey guys I think I may have...
... board ... Speaking from my own experience, I think you'll find it's much easier to use Ken's NEAT code under Cygwin than it is to adapt the Windows NEAT...
... Well, we hope it will be user-friendly. :) We're going to include XOR, Tic-Tac-Toe, and probably a distributed Tic-Tac-Toe that can run on multiple ...
... <snip> ... I'm not currently working with NEAT, but I may in the future. The idea of adaptive topology is very appealing to me, but the C++ implementation...
... Hi Mitchell, one thing you may consider is that in my NEAT C++ package, the experimental control code is closer to C than C++. It is true that it...
Hi all, Pretty soon I think we are going to have our central repository. We will most likely be using ibiblio. www.ibiblio.org. I used to work there and they...
Hi everyone, Well we are set to go on our repository space at ibiblio. Our web address is: http://www.ibiblio.org/neat Now we have to figure out what/how we...
Hey Roger, ... Great! Thanks for setting this up. ... As a starter suggestion, I'd suggest creating directories for each implementation of NEAT, based on the...

Hi all, Philip and I are in the process of implementing the speciation aspect of NEAT in Java, and we came across an issue I wanted to throw out to the group,...
... Which would suggest that you need a proportional comparison. So consider two chromosomes A & B in the following scenarios.. Scenario 1) A.length=3,...
... Right...which is the idea behind dividing by the larger chromosome length, per Ken's original formula. ... As long as it's proportional, I don't see the...

Hey guys, interesting discussion. Now that I'm back from Cali I can tell you a bit about the reasoning that went into my handling of speciation. Let me just...
