This may be of interest to some: http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html And despite the title it seems to be applicable to students in the southern...
It's interesting they are doing this but it doesn't sound realistic at all. Computing power seems to be the least of the challenges in "modeling the human...
I think the initial goal is just to model one neocortical column, about 50,000 neurones I think they said.
There's a popular folk-lore that neocortical...
Hi, ... Yes I think the media may have overstated the project's parameters just a little, as Ken suggested. A comment on slashdot pointed out that this type of...
I have posted two files to support GCC version 3.4 in Ken's C++ NEAT. Use some caution, because I started from the tar file at http://nn.cs.utexas.edu. OTOH,...
... <snip> ... If it is support for an existing Sourceforge project, I'd say post it there and mention it here. ANJI and SharpNEAT are SF projects, but I'm...
Hi, Yes you are indeed correct, the comment does not match the code - 0.7 radians is about 4 degrees. Not that it really affects the experiment very much, so...
Colin, thanks for clarifying this question! It's worth noting that the pole balancing code has a legacy even farther back than NEAT, as it was used for...
Has anyone heard of this ? Kathy mentioned it to me. Apparently she got good results after posting her resume on this site. It says this on the home page of...
Hi, new user here, and I was wondering if anyone has experience interfacing the training of a network generated directly from a Simulink model in matlab? (the...
Hello, I once did this integration for an image compression project. I don't have the source code now, but Matlab provides libraries that you include in your ...
Hello, I'm happy to get some advices. Today, I have a question. I tested double pole balancing without velocities (without Gtk--). In genetics.cc, I found the...
I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking whether 14 is too big? What generation was this returned in? What fitness function is it using? I...
Yes, I think 14 is too big. // Check for Population-level stagnation . . . cout<<"NEW POPULATION RECORD FITNESS"<<highest_fitness<<endl; . . . NEW POPULATION...
We have finally released NERO at: http://nerogame.org For those who don't know, NERO is a video game powered by a real-time version of NEAT. It allows you to...
Yeah we will do that in the next few days. We have a plan for publicity that we are following. In any case, thanks for the suggestion. ken ... idea ... time ...
I just graduated high school, I've been very interested in neural nets for a while, but don't have the applied experience in the real world. I do know OOP C++...
I /don't/ recommend the book "C++ Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic" by Rao and Rao (although it sounds like it would fit your experience). I used it for some NN...
Some of the GECCO folks might be interested in this... Those of you on the Genetic Programming yahoo group may be aware of the Physical Travelling Saleman...
I have placed an image of the my current best PTSP solution here: http://sharpneat.sourceforge.net/ptsp_comp/sharpneat_ptsp_map-30-g5_896steps.png Just from...

Thanks, I'll look forward to hearing more details on what you did. By the way, you aren't at GECCO right now are you (I am)? ken ... the ... further ... ...
Hi Ken, No I'm afraid I'm not at GECCO, although I'd like to be - I guess I really should make the effort for a future GECCO. Anyone else on the list at GECCO...
