Self-organized learning in multi-layer networks
We present a framework for the self-organized formation of high level learning by a statistical preprocessing of features. The paper focuses first on the formation of the features in the context of layers of feature processing units as a kind of resource-restricted associative multiresolution learning We clame that such an architecture must reach maturity by basic statistical proportions, optimizing the information processing capabilities of each layer. The final symbolic output is learned by pure association of features of different levels and kind of sensorial input. Finally, we also show that common error-correction learning for motor skills can be accomplished also by non-specific associative learning. Keywords: feedforward network layers, maximal information gain, restricted Hebbian learning, cellular neural nets, evolutionary associative learnin

NASA JSC neural network survey results
A survey of Artificial Neural Systems in support of NASA's (Johnson Space Center) Automatic Perception for Mission Planning and Flight Control Research Program was conducted. Several of the world's leading researchers contributed papers containing their most recent results on artificial neural systems. These papers were broken into categories and descriptive accounts of the results make up a large part of this report. Also included is material on sources of information on artificial neural systems such as books, technical reports, software tools, etc

A brief network analysis of Artificial Intelligence publication
In this paper, we present an illustration to the history of Artificial
Intelligence(AI) with a statistical analysis of publish since 1940. We
collected and mined through the IEEE publish data base to analysis the
geological and chronological variance of the activeness of research in AI. The
connections between different institutes are showed. The result shows that the
leading community of AI research are mainly in the USA, China, the Europe and
Japan. The key institutes, authors and the research hotspots are revealed. It
is found that the research institutes in the fields like Data Mining, Computer
Vision, Pattern Recognition and some other fields of Machine Learning are quite
consistent, implying a strong interaction between the community of each field.
It is also showed that the research of Electronic Engineering and Industrial or
Commercial applications are very active in California. Japan is also publishing
a lot of papers in robotics. Due to the limitation of data source, the result
might be overly influenced by the number of published articles, which is to our
best improved by applying network keynode analysis on the research community
instead of merely count the number of publish.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figure

How unitary cosmology generalizes thermodynamics and solves the inflationary entropy problem
We analyze cosmology assuming unitary quantum mechanics, using a tripartite
partition into system, observer and environment degrees of freedom. This
generalizes the second law of thermodynamics to "The system's entropy can't
decrease unless it interacts with the observer, and it can't increase unless it
interacts with the environment." The former follows from the quantum Bayes
Theorem we derive. We show that because of the long-range entanglement created
by cosmological inflation, the cosmic entropy decreases exponentially rather
than linearly with the number of bits of information observed, so that a given
observer can reduce entropy by much more than the amount of information her
brain can store. Indeed, we argue that as long as inflation has occurred in a
non-negligible fraction of the volume, almost all sentient observers will find
themselves in a post-inflationary low-entropy Hubble volume, and we humans have
no reason to be surprised that we do so as well, which solves the so-called
inflationary entropy problem. An arguably worse problem for unitary cosmology
involves gamma-ray-burst constraints on the "Big Snap", a fourth cosmic
doomsday scenario alongside the "Big Crunch", "Big Chill" and "Big Rip", where
an increasingly granular nature of expanding space modifies our life-supporting
laws of physics.
Our tripartite framework also clarifies when it is valid to make the popular
quantum gravity approximation that the Einstein tensor equals the quantum
expectation value of the stress-energy tensor, and how problems with recent
attempts to explain dark energy as gravitational backreaction from
super-horizon scale fluctuations can be understood as a failure of this
approximation.Comment: Updated to match accepted PRD version, including Quantum Bayes
