Who used genetic algorithms to address the problem of finding a good structure for a multilayer neural network?
- A.
Lecun et al. (1989)
- B.
Harp et al. (1990) and Miller et al. (1989)
- C.
Mezard and Nadal (1989)
- D.
Frean (1990)
Attempted by 27 students.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Research by Harp et al. (1990) and Miller et al. (1989) specifically utilized genetic algorithms to optimize the structure of multilayer neural networks. This approach allowed for automated topology search rather than manual design choices.
