Neural Developmental Programs for Artificial Agents

Abstract

This presentation revolves around the work being done in the GROW-AI project and recent advancements in the developmental algorithms for artificial neural networks (ANNs) inspired by biological processes. Unlike traditional ANNs, which are manually designed and optimized within fixed architectures, developmental algorithms enable neural networks to self-organize and grow, mirroring the adaptive complexity of biological nervous systems. We will discuss some of the advantages that iterative growth processes can bring to AI models. By leveraging Neural Developmental Programs (NDPs) and their variants, these approaches incorporate mechanisms such as local communication, structural plasticity, and dynamic synaptic adaptation to enhance generalization, robustness, and adaptability in machine learning tasks. Attendees will gain insights into the challenges and opportunities in this emerging research domain.
