Discrete and fuzzy dynamical genetic programming in the XCSF learning classifier system
A number of representation schemes have been presented for use within
learning classifier systems, ranging from binary encodings to neural networks.
This paper presents results from an investigation into using discrete and fuzzy
dynamical system representations within the XCSF learning classifier system. In
particular, asynchronous random Boolean networks are used to represent the
traditional condition-action production system rules in the discrete case and
asynchronous fuzzy logic networks in the continuous-valued case. It is shown
possible to use self-adaptive, open-ended evolution to design an ensemble of
such dynamical systems within XCSF to solve a number of well-known test
problems
Fuzzy Dynamical Genetic Programming in XCSF
A number of representation schemes have been presented for use within
Learning Classifier Systems, ranging from binary encodings to Neural Networks,
and more recently Dynamical Genetic Programming (DGP). This paper presents
results from an investigation into using a fuzzy DGP representation within the
XCSF Learning Classifier System. In particular, asynchronous Fuzzy Logic
Networks are used to represent the traditional condition-action production
system rules. It is shown possible to use self-adaptive, open-ended evolution
to design an ensemble of such fuzzy dynamical systems within XCSF to solve
several well-known continuous-valued test problems.Comment: 2 page GECCO 2011 poster pape
A brief history of learning classifier systems: from CS-1 to XCS and its variants
© 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. The direction set by Wilson’s XCS is that modern Learning Classifier Systems can be characterized by their use of rule accuracy as the utility metric for the search algorithm(s) discovering useful rules. Such searching typically takes place within the restricted space of co-active rules for efficiency. This paper gives an overview of the evolution of Learning Classifier Systems up to XCS, and then of some of the subsequent developments of Wilson’s algorithm to different types of learning
A Cognitive Architecture Based on a Learning Classifier System with Spiking Classifiers
© 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York. Learning classifier systems (LCS) are population-based reinforcement learners that were originally designed to model various cognitive phenomena. This paper presents an explicitly cognitive LCS by using spiking neural networks as classifiers, providing each classifier with a measure of temporal dynamism. We employ a constructivist model of growth of both neurons and synaptic connections, which permits a genetic algorithm to automatically evolve sufficiently-complex neural structures. The spiking classifiers are coupled with a temporally-sensitive reinforcement learning algorithm, which allows the system to perform temporal state decomposition by appropriately rewarding “macro-actions”, created by chaining together multiple atomic actions. The combination of temporal reinforcement learning and neural information processing is shown to outperform benchmark neural classifier systems, and successfully solve a robotic navigation task
