A Review Of Methods For Encoding Neural Network Topologies In Evolutionary Computation

Abstract: This paper describes various methods used to encode artificial neural networks to chromosomes to be used in evolutionary computation. The target of this review is to cover the main techniques of network encoding and make it easier to choose one when implementing a custom evolutionary algorithm for finding the network topology. Most of the encoding methods are mentioned in the context of neural networks; however all of them could be generalized to automata networks or even oriented graphs. We present direct and… Show more

“…There is no "cookbook" how to set up the number of layers and nodes in layers. There are optimization techniques, which help with the structure, connections and node number, like evolutionary computation (Fekiac, 2011) or pseudo neural networks allow to produce a relation between input and output without setting of above mentioned parameters. PNN do not have the structure similar to ANN.…”

“…Prosperity Measure: The other main goal of this framework is enabling automatic design of agent architectures by means of Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs). Here, similar methods to neuro-evolution Fekiac et al (2011) can be used. While omitting multi-objective Fig.…”

“…In case of design networks with no constraints on topology, the space of possible solutions grows extremely fast. Nowadays, there are many solutions how to pose constraints on the topology, so the problem becomes feasible for EAs (Fekiac et al 2011). As a good example can be mentioned Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) (Fišer et al 2010) used for automatical design of logic circuits.…”
