Evolutionary and Coevolutionary Multi-Agent Design Choices and Dynamics

Erik Hemberg, Eric Liu, Lucille Fuller +2

We investigate two representation alternatives for the controllers of teams of cyber agents. We combine these controller representations with different evolutionary algorithms, one…

Guiding Evolutionary AutoEncoder Training with Activation-Based Pruning Operators

Steven Jorgensen, Erik Hemberg, Jamal Toutouh +1

This study explores a novel approach to neural network pruning using evolutionary computation, focusing on simultaneously pruning the encoder and decoder of an autoencoder. We intr…

Evolving Code with A Large Language Model

Erik Hemberg, Stephen Moskal, Una-May O'Reilly

Algorithms that use Large Language Models (LLMs) to evolve code arrived on the Genetic Programming (GP) scene very recently. We present LLM GP, a formalized LLM-based evolutionary…

Signal Propagation in a Gradient-Based and Evolutionary Learning System

Jamal Toutouh, Una-May O'Reilly

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) exhibit training pathologies that can lead to convergence-related degenerative behaviors, whereas spatially-distributed, coevolutionary algor…

Analyzing the Components of Distributed Coevolutionary GAN Training

Jamal Toutouh, Erik Hemberg, Una-May O'Reilly

Distributed coevolutionary Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) training has empirically shown success in overcoming GAN training pathologies. This is mainly due to diversity maint…

Spatial Evolutionary Generative Adversarial Networks

Jamal Toutouh, Erik Hemberg, Una-May O'Reilly

Generative adversary networks (GANs) suffer from training pathologies such as instability and mode collapse. These pathologies mainly arise from a lack of diversity in their advers…
