Genetic Mutation

I am thinking about introducing genetics into Farve neural networks, and it occured to me that genetic mutation can be regarded as a form of a randomized brute-force searching algorithm. Think about that and let me know what you think.

Cheers for now.

Oh, hey Gabriella – it was nice to see you at Tings an’ Times last night! I was very surprised to see you – speechless actually. I mean, what are the chances? Based on how seldom I go out, very very slim. Chance – a interesting topic.

I have reached my target neural network size

I have just successfully allocated 1 Hundred Million Nodes in a neural network. This was just to see if my PC and my program could handle it. I had to compile this for x64 because 32 bit mode cannot handle the memory allocation above about 2GB. But x64 works beautifully.

But size is just promise of additional capability – more important is architecture. SO I am back to much smaller, much more specialized neural circuits.
