As I understand NEAT, during crossover the fitter parent genes predominate, or if equal fitness, then inheritance is at random. I found a thread that discusses...
Mike, My guess is that it would work fine, but I'm uncertain if you will notice a performance increase. When I first wrote NEAT, I let them inherit all genes...
Hello, I was just thinking about NERO. I suddenly made the connection between the sensor placements and the substrates for the robot experiment in D'Ambrosio's...
An interesting thing to mention, yesterday I was playing with my Humans experiment. I took a CPPN that produces a CTRNN exhibiting a "mexican wave" behaviour....
Steve, If we suppose we have parent genes 'dad' & 'mum' and dad is three times as fit as mum, then 2 things are different to the regular approach: 1) for...
Peter, if you don't mind my asking, what kind of work do you do for a living? Is your work with NEAT/HyperNEAT in your spare time or does it have a relation...
Hi Ken, I am currently a C/C++ programmer in a very small company here in Bulgaria. I don't take a lot of money there, but I like my current job because I have...
Sorry , ...of course! I'm still at test/debug for the overall program (ie trying to get xor woring), those trial runs are giving me mum/dad genes with similar ...
I was browsing around to find a library that can help me with FINGERPRINT CLASSIFICATION and then I found ANJI. Anyone have ever tried to use ANJI for the same...
... I'm not really familiar with fingerprint classification. Are you trying to match a database of fingerprints with some test print to find a match, or are...
I know something about this topic, that can be usefil. A fingerprint is characterized by specific points in it, called "minutia". They differ in every person...
... Hey Peter, Some suggestions: 1) Remember that the units have a defined volume. You will get better results if, as you increase resolution, single units...

I am so glad that there are a lot here willing to share opinions. Actually, before I start to ask for help, I want to share a bit about the project that I am...
I forgot to mention that I already downloaded the FVC database which contains quite a lot of great quality image. And also the fingerprint matching is done...
Peter, very interesting, thanks for all your thoughts. I'm glad you're trying out ideas with HyperNEAT and look forward to hearing what you do with it. I...
Actually, this made me realize, HyperNEAT could potentially be good for fingerprint recognition/classification since it can deal with high resolution inputs...
As I think for possible implementations for fingerprint recognition/classification with existing HyperNEAT software, I can raise the following issues: - My...
... Peter, in the experiment you are describing, are you using a roving eye or just inputting a whole image into the substrate? With HyperNEAT, it should be...
Hi Ken, I made the eye static as you suggested in one previous disscussion about this experiment, using HyperNEAT for visual recognition. (Roving eye &...
Hi Peter, First of all, my apologies to everyone for a non-NEAT related post. Can you check your yahoo e-mail address and drop me a line if you are interested...
Hi, Shane. I am sorry but I registered a Yahoo mailbox just because I wanted to join the group. I redirect most people to my mailbox here: spookey (at) abv...
Hi Peter, I agree with your statement of the problem. In a way, translation and scaling are both natural, but rotation is particularly difficult to evolve....
Hello, I've been reading this emailgroup for a couple of weeks now with great interest and started experimenting with Neat also. As I see your problem it...
Hello, Jan-Jaap, It is good to see that you are experimenting with NEAT, but this is an CPPN/HyperNEAT issue we are discussing right now. Your suggestion is...
