Coevolutionary Life-Time Learning
نویسنده
چکیده
This work studies the interaction of evolution and learning. It starts from the coevolutionary genetic algorithm (CGA) introduced earlier. Two techniques life-time fitness evaluation (LTFE) and predator-prey coevolution boost the genetic search of a CGA. The partial but continuous nature of LTFE allows for an elegant incorporation of life-time learning (LTL) within CGAs. This way, not only the genetic search but also the LTL component focuses on "not yet solved" problems. The performance of the new algorithm is compared with various other algorithms.

Coevolutionary Learning with Spatially Distributed Populations
Many approaches to machine learning require a system to learn a model from a set of training examples that the model must classify, or training problems that the model must solve. How are these training cases to be chosen? Typically, due to the costs of acquisition or computation, only a relatively small sample from the universe of possible problems is available to the learner. How should that ...
متن کاملA Coevolutionary Approach to Learning Sequential Decision Rules
We present a coevolutionary approach to learning sequential decision rules which appears to have a number of advantages over non-coevolutionary approaches. The coevolutionary approach encourages the formation of stable niches representing simpler subbehaviors. The evolutionary direction of each subbehavior can be controlled independently, providing an alternative to evolving complex behavior us...
متن کاملCoevolutionary Learning: A Case Study
Coevolutionary learning, which involves the embedding of adaptive learning agents in a tness environment that dynamically responds to their progress, is a potential solution for many technological chicken and egg problems. However, several impediments have to be overcome in order for coevolutionary learning to achieve continuous progress in the long term. This paper presents some of those probl...
متن کاملTime-dependent Collaboration Schemes for Cooperative Coevolutionary Algorithms
Cooperative coevolutionary algorithms are a popular approach to learning via problem decomposition. One important aspect of cooperative coevolutionary algorithms concerns how to select collaborators for computing the fitness of individuals in different populations. We argue that using a fixed number of collaborators during the entire search may be suboptimal. We experiment with a simple ad-hoc ...
متن کاملCoevolutionary Construction of Features for Transformation of Representation in Machine Learning
The main objective of this paper is to study the usefulness of cooperative coevolutionary algorithms (CCA) for improving the performance of classification of machine learning (ML) classifiers, in particular those following the symbolic paradigm. For this purpose, we present a genetic programming (GP) -based coevolutionary feature construction procedure. In the experimental part, we confront the...
