SUMMARY:Neuroevolution &amp\; NEAT - Ben Thomas\, Homerton College

DESCRIPTION:Neural Networks are very useful for machine learning.  But how
  do we generate them?  There are many many different ways to do this\, but
  one that is increasingly being talking about is neuroevolution.  In neuro
 evolution\, we combine the ideas of neural networks with evolutionary algo
 rithms.  This talk discusses the idea of neuroevolution\, as well as going
  into depth on one such neuroevolutionary method\, NEAT.  NEAT stands for 
 NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies\, and it lets us evolve different 
 structures of neural networks\, not just the weights of the network.
