Evolves Setup/Predict/Learn programs built from scalar/vector/matrix operations, rediscovering and extending small learning mechanisms on image-classification proxy tasks.
Scientific scope
Evolves Setup/Predict/Learn programs built from scalar/vector/matrix operations, rediscovering and extending small learning mechanisms on image-classification proxy tasks. Evolutionary search assembled learning programs from basic operations in a human-designed framework; results were demonstrated on bounded learning tasks. The memory model, instruction set, evaluator, task distribution and compute are designed by humans. From-scratch means no supplied neural-network/gradient program, not no inductive bias or general autonomous science. Projected/binary image tasks do not show automatic discovery of frontier-scale learners. First two authors contribute equally.

WRS has not independently rerun these experiments.
