Creative AI Through Evolutionary Computation: Principles and Examples
1The University of Texas at Austin and Cognizant Technology Solutions, San Francisco, USA.
Abstract:
The main power of artificial intelligence is not in modeling what we already know, but in creating solutions that are new. Such solutions exist in extremely large, high-dimensional, and complex search spaces. Population-based search techniques, i.e. variants of evolutionary computation, are well suited to finding them. These techniques make it possible to find creative solutions to practical problems in the real world, making creative AI through evolutionary computation the likely "next deep learning."

E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...
