[[Editor's Note: Yipes! My queue grew too long, plus I went to San Diego
for the Acoustic Society's conference and this slipped through. NIPS has
already happened, but readers may wish to know about the following. ON a
related note, would some kind reader please submit a review of NIPS for
those of us who could not make it? What exciting papers were presented?
What new things emerged? What is your estimation of the state of the
field, as evidenced at NIPS? -PM ]]
Genetic Algorithms, Neural Networks,
and Artificial Life
David H. Ackley
Richard K. Belew
Based on the principles of natural selection, "genetic algorithms" (GAs)
are a class of adaptive techniques that use a population of structures to
represent a set of potential solutions to some problem. Selective
reproduction emphasizes "more fit" individuals and focuses the search
process, while genetic operators modify the offspring to increase
diversity and search broadly. Theoretical and empirical results
highlight the importance of employing the "crossover" operator to
exchange information between individuals. Such genetic recombination
produces a global search strategy quite different from --- and in some
ways complementary to --- the gradient-based techniques popular in neural
network learning.
We will survey the theory and practice of genetic algorithms, and then
focus on the growing body of research efforts that combine genetic
algorithms and neural networks. Brief presentations from researchers
active in the field (including Richard Lippmann, David Stork, and Darrell
Whitley) will set the stage for in-depth discussions of issues in the
area, such as:
* Comparison and composition of GA sampling and NNet searching
* The advantages and costs of recombination operators
* Parallel implementations of GAs
* Appropriate representations for NNets with the GA
* Roles for ontogeny between GA evolution and NNet learning
During the course of the workshop we will gradually broaden our scope.
As natural neurons provide inspiration for artificial neural networks,
and natural selection provides inspiration for GAs, other aspects of
natural life can provide inspirations for studies in "artificial life".
We will sample recent "alife" research efforts, and conclude with a
discussion of prospects and problems for this new, interdisciplinary
field.

To: everyone I've contacted about the NIPS90 VLSI workshop, thanks for your
help! It's shaping up to be a great session. Special thanks to those who
have volunteered to give presentations.
Workshop 8. on VLSI Neural Networks is being held Saturday, Dec 1 at
Keystone. Related workshops are workshop 7. on implementations of neural
networks on digital, massively parallel computers, and workshop 9. on
optical implementations.
Abstract: 8. VLSI Neural Networks
Jim Burr
Stanford University
Stanford, CA 94305
(415) 723-4087
burr@mojave.stanford.edu
This one day workshop will address the latest advances in VLSI
implementations of neural nets. How successful have implementations been
so far? Are dedicated neurochips being used in real applications? What
algorithms have been implemented? Which ones have not been? Why not? How
important is on chip learning? How much arithmetic precision is
necessary? Which is more important, capacity or performance? What are
the issues in constructing very large networks? What are the technology
scaling limits? Any new technology developments?
Several invited speakers will address these and other questions from
various points of view in discussing their current research. We will try
to gain better insight into the strengths and limitations of dedicated
hardware solutions.
Agenda:
morning:
1. review of new chips
capacity
performance
power
learning
architecture
2. guidelines for reporting results - recommendation at evening session
specify technology, performance, power if possible
translate power into joules/connection
or joules/update
3. analog vs digital - the debate goes on
4. on-chip learning - who needs it
5. locality - who needs it (Boltzmann vs backprop)
6. precision - how much
7. leveraging tech scaling
evening:
1. large networks - how big
memory
power
Here are some of the issues we will discuss during the workshop:
- What is the digital/analog tradeoff for storing weights?
- What is the digital/analog tradeoff for doing inner products?
- What is the digital/analog tradeoff for multichip systems?
- Is on-chip learning necessary?
- How important is locality?
- How much precision is needed in a digital system?
- What capabilities can we expect in 2 years? 5 years?
- What are the biggest obstacles to implementing LARGE networks?
Capacity? Performance? Power? Connectivity?
presenters:
Kristina Johnson, UC Boulder electro-optical networks
Josh Alspector, Bellcore analog Boltzmann machines
Andy Moore, Caltech subthreshold (with Video!)
Edi Saeckinger, ATT NET32K
Tom Baker, Adaptive Solutions precision
Hal McCartor, Adaptive Solutions the X1
Chip presenters: please consider mentioning the following:
- technology (eg 2.0 micron CMOS, 0.8 micron GaAs)
- capacity in connections and neurons
- performance in connections per second
- energy per connection (power dissipation)
- on-chip learning? (Updates per second)
- scalability? How large a network?
- a few words on tools

Summer Institute in
Cognitive Neuroscience
The 1991 Summer Institute will be held at Dartmouth College, July 1-12.
The two week course will examine how information about the brain bears on
issues in cognitive science, and how approaches in cognitive science
apply to neuroscience research. A distinguished international faculty
will lecture on current topics in attention and emotion, including
neurological and psychiatric disorders; laboratories, demonstrations and
videotapes will offer practical experience with cognitive neuropsychology
experiments, connectionist and computational modeling, and neuroanatomy.
At every stage, the relationship between cognitive issues and underlying
neural circuits will be explored. The Institute directors will be
Michael I. Posner, David L. LaBerge, Joseph E. LeDoux, Michael S.
Gazzaniga, and Gordon M. Shepherd. The Foundation is providing limited
support for travel expenses and room/board. Applications are invited
from beginning and established researchers, and must be received by
January 11, 1991. For further information contact P. Reuter-Lorenz
