Two Ways of Understanding Social Dynamics: Analyzing the Predictability of Emergence of Objects in Reddit r/place Dependent on Locality in Space and Time

no code implementations2 Jun 2022 Alyssa M Adams, Javier Fernandez, Olaf Witkowski

Lately, studying social dynamics in interacting agents has been boosted by the power of computer models, which bring the richness of qualitative work, while offering the precision, transparency, extensiveness, and replicability of statistical and mathematical approaches.

CLIPDraw: Exploring Text-to-Drawing Synthesis through Language-Image Encoders

2 code implementations28 Jun 2021 Kevin Frans, L. B. Soros, Olaf Witkowski

This work presents CLIPDraw, an algorithm that synthesizes novel drawings based on natural language input.

Selecting for Selection: Learning To Balance Adaptive and Diversifying Pressures in Evolutionary Search

no code implementations16 Jun 2021 Kevin Frans, L. B. Soros, Olaf Witkowski

Inspired by natural evolution, evolutionary search algorithms have proven remarkably capable due to their dual abilities to radiantly explore through diverse populations and to converge to adaptive pressures.

Population-Based Evolution Optimizes a Meta-Learning Objective

no code implementations11 Mar 2021 Kevin Frans, Olaf Witkowski

Meta-learning models, or models that learn to learn, have been a long-desired target for their ability to quickly solve new tasks.

Permutation-equivariant neural networks applied to dynamics prediction

2 code implementations14 Dec 2016 Nicholas Guttenberg, Nathaniel Virgo, Olaf Witkowski, Hidetoshi Aoki, Ryota Kanai

The introduction of convolutional layers greatly advanced the performance of neural networks on image tasks due to innately capturing a way of encoding and learning translation-invariant operations, matching one of the underlying symmetries of the image domain.
