Genetic
Algorithms and evolutionary programming are vastly interesting fields of
study. The machine
above
was designed using a structure similar to that found in the brain, and
consisted of millions of
Neurons,
Axons, and Dendrites. The machine was a research vehicle into evolutionary
hardware, that is,
machines
that evolve circuits and solutions to complex problems using techniques
similar to biological
evolution.
The machine breeds millions of generations of solutions to a given problem,
and using survival-
of-the-fittest
techniques, arrives at a best-fit solution using advanced hardware
techniques instead of
software.
Because of this, it is many thousands of times faster than a desktop computer
when faced with a
challenging,
and complex problem.
