Finally done with my first blog post "The Future of Artificial Intelligence is Self-Organizing and Self-Assembling"!

sebastianrisi.com/self_assemblin…

Covering work from our group and others on the combination of ideas from deep learning and self-organizing systems.
Ideas from collective systems are slowly capturing the interest of the larger machine learning community. Very much looking forward to this workshop:
Also check out this excellent and related review article on "Collective Intelligence for Deep Learning: A Survey of Recent Developments" by @hardmaru & @yujin_tang.

Excited to share our work on Morphogenesis in Minecraft! We show that neural cellular automata can learn to grow not only complex 3D artifacts with over 3,000 blocks but also functional Minecraft machines that can regenerate when cut in half 🐛🔪=🐛🐛

Very proud of the team @SudhakaranShyam , @DjordjeGrbic2, @Sylvia_Sparkle, @AdamKat0na, @enasmel, @claire__aoi. Hopefully of interest to @kenneth0stanley, @Smearle_RH, @pyoudeyer, @BertChakovsky. Maybe Minecraft+NCAs will be the building block of @gregeganSF's permutation city?😄 Image
Inspired by @zzznah, @RandazzoEttore, @eyvindn, @drmichaellevin, @blaiseaguera, @ch402 work, we train a network in a supervised way to grow target structures, extending their approach from 2D to 3D.

@enasmel and myself are excited to announce our paper "Meta-Learning through Hebbian Plasticity in Random Networks" arxiv.org/abs/2007.02686

Instead of optimizing the neural network's weights directly, we only search for synapse-specific Hebbian learning rules. Thread 👇
Starting from completely random weights, the discovered Hebbian rules enable an agent to navigate a dynamical 2D-pixel environment; likewise they allow a simulated 3D quadrupedal robot to learn how to walk in around 40 timesteps in the absence of any explicit reward.
The random Hebbian network is also able to adapt to damages in the morphology of the quadrupedal robot, while a fixed-weight network fails to do so. Image
