Self-Replication, Spontaneous Mutations, and Exponential Genetic Drift in Neural Cellular Automata

1 code implementation22 May 2023 Lana Sinapayen

This paper reports on patterns exhibiting self-replication with spontaneous, inheritable mutations and exponential genetic drift in Neural Cellular Automata.

Hybrid Life: Integrating Biological, Artificial, and Cognitive Systems

no code implementations1 Dec 2022 Manuel Baltieri, Hiroyuki Iizuka, Olaf Witkowski, Lana Sinapayen, Keisuke Suzuki

Artificial life is a research field studying what processes and properties define life, based on a multidisciplinary approach spanning the physical, natural and computational sciences.

Evolutionary Generation of Visual Motion Illusions

1 code implementation25 Dec 2021 Lana Sinapayen, Eiji Watanabe

Why do we sometimes perceive static images as if they were moving?

Impact of GPU uncertainty on the training of predictive deep neural networks

no code implementations3 Sep 2021 Maciej Pietrowski, Andrzej Gajda, Takuto Yamamoto, Taisuke Kobayashi, Lana Sinapayen, Eiji Watanabe

GPU-specific computational processing is more indeterminate than that by CPUs, and hardware-derived uncertainties, which are often considered obstacles that need to be eliminated, might, in some cases, be successfully incorporated into the training of deep neural networks.

Neural Autopoiesis: Organizing Self-Boundary by Stimulus Avoidance in Biological and Artificial Neural Networks

no code implementations27 Jan 2020 Atsushi Masumori, Lana Sinapayen, Norihiro Maruyama, Takeshi Mita, Douglas Bakkum, Urs Frey, Hirokazu Takahashi, Takashi Ikegami

In this paper, as a result of our experiments using embodied cultured neurons, we find that there is also a second property allowing the network to avoid stimulation: if the agent cannot learn an action to avoid the external stimuli, it tends to decrease the stimulus-evoked spikes, as if to ignore the uncontrollable-input.

Predictive Coding as Stimulus Avoidance in Spiking Neural Networks

no code implementations21 Nov 2019 Atsushi Masumori, Lana Sinapayen, Takashi Ikegami

Predictive coding can be regarded as a function which reduces the error between an input signal and a top-down prediction.

DNN Architecture for High Performance Prediction on Natural Videos Loses Submodule's Ability to Learn Discrete-World Dataset

1 code implementation16 Apr 2019 Lana Sinapayen, Atsushi Noda

Yet PredNet cannot be trained to reach even mediocre accuracy on an artificial video dataset created with the rules of the Game of Life (GoL).

Reactive, Proactive, and Inductive Agents: An evolutionary path for biological and artificial spiking networks

no code implementations18 Feb 2019 Lana Sinapayen, Atsushi Masumori, Ikegami Takashi

We propose an evolutionary path for neural networks, leading an organism from reactive behavior to simple proactive behavior and from simple proactive behavior to induction-based behavior.

Learning by Stimulation Avoidance: A Principle to Control Spiking Neural Networks Dynamics

no code implementations25 Sep 2016 Lana Sinapayen, Atsushi Masumori, Takashi Ikegami

We show that LSA has a higher explanatory power than existing hypotheses about the response of biological neural networks to external simulation, and can be used as a learning rule for an embodied application: learning of wall avoidance by a simulated robot.
