[Title] Genetic Encoding Strategies for Neural Networks [Abstract] The application of genetic algorithms to neural network optimization (GANN) has produced an active field of research. This paper proposes a classification of the encoding strategies and it also gives a critical analysis of the current state of development. The idea of evolving artificial neural networks (NN) by genetic algorithms (GA) is based on a powerful metaphor: the evolution of the human brain. This mechanism has developed the highest form of intelligence known from scratch. The metaphor has inspired a great deal of research activities that can be traced to the late 1980s (for instance [15]). An increasing amount of research reports, journal papers and theses have been published on the topic, generating a conti-nously growing field. Researchers have devoloped a variety of different techniques to encode neural networks for the GA, with increasing complexity. This young field is driven mostly by small, independet research groups that scarcely cooperate with each other. This paper will attempt to analyse and to structure the already performed work, and to point out the shortcomings of the approaches. Please summarise all the given information.

[Title] Evolution of the Topology and the Weights of Neural Networks using Genetic Programming with a [Abstract] Genetic programming is a methodology for program development, consisting of a special form of genetic algorithm capable of handling parse trees representing programs, that has been successfully applied to a variety of problems. In this paper a new approach to the construction of neural networks based on genetic programming is presented. A linear chromosome is combined to a graph representation of the network and new operators are introduced, which allow the evolution of the architecture and the weights simultaneously without the need of local weight optimization. This paper describes the approach, the operators and reports results of the application of the model to several binary classification problems. Please summarise all the given information.

Reading, MA: Addison-Wesley. [Abstract] To implement a specific application, you should only have to change the file app.c. Section 2 describes the routines in app.c in detail. If you use additional variables for your specific problem, the easiest method of making them available to other program units is to declare them in sga.h and external.h. However, take care that you do not redeclare existing variables. Two example applications files are included in the SGA-C distribution. The file app1.c performs the simple example problem included with the Pascal version; finding the maximum of x 10 , where x is an integer interpretation of a chromosome. A slightly more complex application is include in app2.c. This application illustrates two features that have been added to SGA-C. The first of these is the ithruj2int function, which converts bits i through j in a chromosome to an integer. The second new feature is the utility pointer that is associated with each population member. The example application interprets each chromosome as a set of concatenated integers in binary form. The lengths of these integer fields is determined by the user-specified value of field size, which is read in by the function app data(). The field size must be less than the smallest of the chromosome length and the length of an unsigned integer. An integer array for storing the interpreted form of each chromosome is dynamically allocated and assigned to the chromosome's utility pointer in app malloc(). The ithruj2int routine (see utility.c) is used to translate each chromosome into its associated vector. The fitness for each chromosome is simply the sum of the squares of these integers. This example application will function for any chromosome length. SGA-C is intended to be a simple program for first-time GA experimentation. It is not intended to be definitive in terms of its efficiency or the grace of its implementation. The authors are interested in the comments, criticisms, and bug reports from SGA-C users, so that the code can be refined for easier use in subsequent versions.

[Title] A Hypothesis-driven Constructive Induction Approach to Expanding Neural Networks [Abstract] With most machine learning methods, if the given knowledge representation space is inadequate then the learning process will fail. This is also true with methods using neural networks as the form of the representation space. To overcome this limitation, an automatic construction method for a neural network is proposed. This paper describes the BP-HCI method for a hypothesis-driven constructive induction in a neural network trained by the backpropagation algorithm. The method searches for a better representation space by analyzing the hypotheses generated in each step of an iterative learning process. The method was applied to ten problems, which include, in particular, exclusive-or, MONK2, parity-6BIT and inverse parity-6BIT problems. All problems were successfully solved with the same initial set of parameters; the extension of representation space was no more than necessary extension for each problem.

[Title] Soft Computing: the Convergence of Emerging Reasoning Technologies [Abstract] The term Soft Computing (SC) represents the combination of emerging problem-solving technologies such as Fuzzy Logic (FL), Probabilistic Reasoning (PR), Neural Networks (NNs), and Genetic Algorithms (GAs). Each of these technologies provide us with complementary reasoning and searching methods to solve complex, real-world problems. After a brief description of each of these technologies, we will analyze some of their most useful combinations, such as the use of FL to control GAs and NNs parameters; the application of GAs to evolve NNs (topologies or weights) or to tune FL controllers; and the implementation of FL controllers as NNs tuned by backpropagation-type algorithms. Please summarise all the given information.

[Title] Evolving Artificial Neural Networks using the Baldwin Effect [Abstract] This paper describes how through simple means a genetic search towards optimal neural network architectures can be improved, both in the convergence speed as in the quality of the final result. This result can be theoretically explained with the Baldwin effect, which is implemented here not just by the learning process of the network alone, but also by changing the network architecture as part of the learning procedure. This can be seen as a combination of two different techniques, both help ing and improving on simple genetic search. Please summarise all the given information.

[Title] LEARNING BY ERROR-DRIVEN DECOMPOSITION [Abstract] In this paper we describe a new selforganizing decomposition technique for learning high-dimensional mappings. Problem decomposition is performed in an error-driven manner, such that the resulting subtasks (patches) are equally well approximated. Our method combines an unsupervised learning scheme (Feature Maps [Koh84]) with a nonlinear approximator (Backpropagation [RHW86]). The resulting learning system is more stable and effective in changing environments than plain backpropagation and much more powerful than extended feature maps as proposed by [RS88, RMS89]. Extensions of our method give rise to active exploration strategies for autonomous agents facing unknown environments. The appropriateness of our general purpose method will be demonstrated with an ex ample from mathematical function approximation. Please summarise all the given information.

[Title] Feature selection through Functional Links with Evolutionary Computation for Neural Networks [Abstract] In this paper we describe different ways to select and transform features using evolutionary computation. The features are intended to serve as inputs to a feedforward network. The first way is the selection of features using a standard genetic algorithm, and the solution found specifies whether a certain feature should be present or not. We show that for the prediction of unemployment rates in various European countries, this is a succesfull approach. In fact, this kind of selection of features is a special case of so-called functional links. Functional links transform the input pattern space to a new pattern space. As functional links one can use polynomials, or more general functions. Both can be found using evolutionary computation. Polynomial functional links are found by evolving a coding of the powers of the polynomial. For symbolic functions we can use genetic programming. Genetic programming finds the symbolic functions that are to be applied to the inputs. We compare the workings of the latter two methods on two artificial datasets, and on a real-world medical image dataset. Please summarise all the given information.

[Title] Dynamic Parameter Encoding for Genetic Algorithms [Abstract] The common use of static binary place-value codes for real-valued parameters of the phenotype in Holland's genetic algorithm (GA) forces either the sacrifice of representational precision for efficiency of search or vice versa. Dynamic Parameter Encoding (DPE) is a mechanism that avoids this dilemma by using convergence statistics derived from the GA population to adaptively control the mapping from fixed-length binary genes to real values. DPE is shown to be empirically effective and amenable to analysis; we explore the problem of premature convergence in GAs through two convergence models. Please summarise all the given information.
