The Opaque Nature of Intelligence and the Pursuit of Explainable AI (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Thomson, S. L., van Stein, N., van den Berg, D., & van Leeuwen, C. (2023, November). The Opaque Nature of Intelligence and the Pursuit of Explainable AI. Presented at NCTA 2023: 15th International Conference on Neural Computation Theory and Applications, Rome, Italy

When artificial intelligence is used for making decisions, people are more likely to accept those decisions if they can be made intelligible to the public. This understanding has led to the emerging field of explainable artificial intelligence. We re... Read More about The Opaque Nature of Intelligence and the Pursuit of Explainable AI.

Too Constrained for Genetic Algorithms. Too Hard for Evolutionary Computing. The Traveling Tournament Problem. (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Verduin, K., Thomson, S. L., & van den Berg, D. (2023, November). Too Constrained for Genetic Algorithms. Too Hard for Evolutionary Computing. The Traveling Tournament Problem. Presented at ECTA 2023 15th International Conference on Evolutionary Computation Theory and Applications, Rome, Italy

Unlike other NP-hard problems, the constraints on the traveling tournament problem are so pressing that it’s hardly possible to randomly generate a valid solution, for example, to use in a genetic algorithm’s initial population. In this study, we ran... Read More about Too Constrained for Genetic Algorithms. Too Hard for Evolutionary Computing. The Traveling Tournament Problem..

Can HP-protein folding be solved with genetic algorithms? Maybe not (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Jansen, R., Horn, R., van Eck, O., Version, K., Thomson, S. L., & van den Berg, D. (2023, November). Can HP-protein folding be solved with genetic algorithms? Maybe not. Presented at ECTA 2023 15th International Conference on Evolutionary Computation Theory and Applications, Rome, Italy

Genetic algorithms might not be able to solve the HP-protein folding problem because creating random individuals for an initial population is very hard, if not impossible. The reason for this, is that the expected number of constraint violations incr... Read More about Can HP-protein folding be solved with genetic algorithms? Maybe not.
