Hi all,
I'm doing some work for a personal project (hopefully will contribute to a thesis at some point). I need some help gathering information; if anybody could help, that would be GRRRRRRREAT!
The basic idea going here is that I want to use a neural network to solve a problem. However, rather than just specify the architecture for the network up front (which is a critical part of the solution), I want to develop it using a genetic algorithm.
Here's what I need, and what I have so far:
  • Links / references / keywords for academic work in using genetic algorithms to construct artificial neural networks.

  • EVOLUTIONARY DESIGN OF NEURAL ARCHITECTURES - exactly what I want, but it's like through 1995! I contacted the people there, but no response yet (OK, I sent email today... )
  • Free software that does neural network training (preferrably runnable via the command-line option)
  • TLearn - pretty solid, decent UI / analysis, but a bit buggy and no command-line option (i.e. no scripting!!!)

    Bump
    You can take my brain apart if you are careful to put it back the way that it was! Other than that, I've got nothing for you. PB
