Title

An investigation into healing strategies for boolean networks (?) [Perhaps lexical networks as well - see further below]

Can be seen as the boolean approach of Learning & the aging brain --Amelie

though boolean networks seems a good choice, I think we should still keep an open mind whether we want to use boolean networks only (useful for modelling brain, circuits etc where a global function is computed by the network.) or a network of intelligent nodes (like computers useful for peer-to-peer, distributed, real computer networks etc). -- Amitabh

Overview

Simple

  1. Random Boolean Network
  2. Evolve network parameters (boolean function, connections, ...)
  3. Select n best networks
  4. Apply different healing strategies to each n network and compare

Evolved-Resilience Network

  1. Random Boolean Network
  2. Evolve with failures / insertions
  3. Select n best networks
  4. Apply different healing strategies


Healing Strategies

  • Re-evolve whole network
  • Local healing / Directed evolution
    • Static re-evolution around failure point
      • Breadth-first
      • Depth-first
    • Dynamic expansion of re-evolution


Types of failure


Still to decide

  • Simulation environment - Java?
  • Stochasisity / non-determinism?
  • Boolean functions, etc...
