Learning in Badger experts improves with episodic memory

October 23, 2020 Research

AI agents often operate in partially observable environments, where only part of the environment state is visible at any given time. An agent in such an environment needs memory to compute effective actions from the history of its actions.

Benefits of modular approach – generalization

August 09, 2020 Research

One of the properties of the Badger architecture is modularity: instead of using one big neural network, the Badger should be composed of many small Experts which solve the whole task in a collaborative manner.

Trainability of Badger – Why is Badger so hard to train?

May 20, 2020 Research

To understand why Badger is hard to train, we need to understand first how Badger learns, using a toy task. We try to understand the plateaus, what happens during this period, and why the plateaus are there.

GoodAI’s ToyArchitecture published in PLOS ONE

May 20, 2020 Research

Research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has focused mostly on two extremes: either on small improvements in narrow AI domains, or on universal theoretical frameworks which are often uncomputable, or lack practical implementations.

Distributed Evolutionary Computation on Deep Reinforcement Learning Tasks

April 30, 2020 Research

Currently, we are experimenting with an experimental setup proposed in our Badger paper. One of the areas of explorations is an evaluation of suitability of various training settings: supervised learning, Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL), and evolutionary optimization.

Neural Networks in Unity using Native Libraries

March 11, 2020 Research

This guide shows how to use Pytorch’s C++ API to use neural networks in Unity. We can use this with existing Python-based models, by freezing the execution trace into a binary file that is loaded by the library at runtime.

Implementation of Generative Teaching Networks for PyTorch

March 11, 2020 Research

At GoodAI, we’re interested in multi-agent architectures that can learn to rapidly adapt to new and unseen environments we expect the behavior and adaptation to be learned through communication of homogeneous units inside a single agent, allowing for better generalization.
