Iaroslav Omelianenko

Iaroslav Omelianenko occupied the position of CTO and research director for more than a decade. He is an active member of the research community and has published several research papers at arXiv, ResearchGate, Preprints, and more. He started working with applied machine learning by developing autonomous agents for mobile games more than a decade ago. For the last 5 years, he has actively participated in research related to applying deep machine learning methods for authentication, personal traits recognition, cooperative robotics, synthetic intelligence, and more. He is an active software developer and creates open source neuroevolution algorithm implementations in the Go language.

Modified maze experiment implementation

The implementation of the experiment runner is based on the MultiNEAT Python library, which we have used in several experiments in this book. The evolution of each co-evolving population is controlled by the basic NEAT algorithm, which was discussed in Chapter 3, Using NEAT for XOR Solver Optimization, Chapter 4, Pole-Balancing Experiments, and Chapter 5, Autonomous Maze Navigation.

However, in this section, we demonstrate how to use the NEAT algorithm to maintain the co-evolution of two independent populations of species: the maze solvers and the objective function candidates.

Next, we discuss the essential parts of the modified maze experiment runner.
