Early-Stopping Thresholds for ES-HyperNEAT: A Data-Driven Approach from Fitness Dynamics
Romain Claret, Arthur Gygax, Michael O'Neill +2
Most hyperparameter configurations for Evolvable-Substrate HyperNEAT (ES-HyperNEAT) produce networks that stagnate at random-guessing performance, wasting computational resources.…

Breaking the Central Bias: Spatially Partitioned Experts for Coordinate-Based Neuroevolution
Romain Claret, Arthur Gygax, Michael O'Neill +3
Evolvable-Substrate HyperNEAT (ES-HyperNEAT), a bio-inspired indirect encoding that determines neuron placement and connection weights from spatial coordinates, exhibits a failure…
