The Effect of Sporadic Dormancy on Adaptation under Natural Selection: A Formal Theory
Sasanka Sekhar Chanda
Researchers puzzle over questions as to how rare species survive extinction, and why a significant proportion of microbial taxa are dormant. Computational simulation modeling by a…
Mandating Code Disclosure is Unnecessary -- Strict Model Verification Does Not Require Accessing Original Computer Code
Sasanka Sekhar Chanda
Mandating public availability of computer code underlying computational simulation modeling research ends up doing a disservice to the cause of model verification when inconsistenc…
An Algorithm to Effect Prompt Termination of Myopic Local Search on Kauffman-s NK Landscape
Sasanka Sekhar Chanda
In Kauffman-s NK model, myopic local search involves flipping one randomly-chosen bit of an N-bit decision string in every time step and accepting the new configuration if that has…
Overcoming Complexity Catastrophe: An Algorithm for Beneficial Far-Reaching Adaptation under High Complexity
Sasanka Sekhar Chanda, Sai Yayavaram
In his seminal work with NK algorithms, Kauffman noted that fitness outcomes from algorithms navigating an NK landscape show a sharp decline at high complexity arising from pervasi…
AI Failures: A Review of Underlying Issues
Debarag Narayan Banerjee, Sasanka Sekhar Chanda
Instances of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems failing to deliver consistent, satisfactory performance are legion. We investigate why AI failures occur. We address only a narrow…
An Algorithm to find Superior Fitness on NK Landscapes under High Complexity: Muddling Through
Sasanka Sekhar Chanda, Sai Yayavaram
Under high complexity - given by pervasive interdependence between constituent elements of a decision in an NK landscape - our algorithm obtains fitness superior to that reported i…
