NNRG Projects - Leveraging Human Creativity with Machine Discovery

  • NEAT is a learning system where the learned decision policy is represented in
    neural networks and learned through evolutionary optimization, i.e. genetic
    algorithms. NEAT evolves network structure as well as weights, which makes it
    possible in principle to incorporate human guidance in three ways: (1) building
    a gradually more complex network structure through shaping from simple to more
    complex tasks, (2) training networks with examples of human behavior, and (3)
    converting human-designed rules into network structures.
  • series of human subject experiments, the solutions designed through human-guided
    neuroevolution will be compared to those designed by human engineers and to
    those discovered by neuroevolution alone, verifying that (a) the human-guided
    approach results in better solutions, and (b) those solutions are more creative.

Department of Psychology / Princeton University /

ial Cognition and Person Perception\nThe primary focus of research in our lab is on the cognitive and neural mechanisms of person perception with a particular emphasis on the social dimensions of face perception. Research on face perception intersects a number of different research areas - social psychology, cognitive psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and neuropsychology - and the approach in our lab is multidisciplinary. We use a variety of methods from behavioral and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) experiments to eye tracking, and computer and statistical modeling. The span of our research ranges from the social consequences of rapid, initial person impressions to the basic neural mechanisms underlying such impressions.\nPUBLICATIONS CURRICULUM VITAE \n\n \n

The merits of imports v exports | Opening the floodgates | The Economist

  • What a country really gains from trade is the ability to import things it wants.
    Exports are not an objective in and of themselves; the need to export is a
    burden that a country must bear because its import suppliers are crass enough to
    demand payment.”

  • This view does not dominate the public debate. Most are thrilled by the idea
    of export growth, but cower at the prospect of more imports. Such prejudice
    certainly prevailed in India in 1991, when the IMF foisted tariff cuts on the
    economy as one of the conditions attached to a $2.5 billion bail-out package.
    Pessimists fretted that a flood of imports would destroy Indian industry.

Attention and awareness in stage magic: turning tricks into research : Article : Nature Reviews Neuroscience

  • Just as vision scientists study visual art and illusions to
    elucidate the workings of the visual system, so too can cognitive scientists
    study cognitive illusions to elucidate the underpinnings of cognition. Magic
    shows are a manifestation of accomplished magic performers' deep intuition for
    and understanding of human attention and awareness. By studying magicians and
    their techniques, neuroscientists can learn powerful methods to manipulate
    attention and awareness in the laboratory. Such methods could be exploited to
    directly study the behavioural and neural basis of consciousness itself, for
    instance through the use of brain imaging and other neural recording
    techniques.

Putting a Price on Social Connections - BusinessWeek

  • The research, released this week, even assigns a dollar value to
    e-mail interaction with an employee's managers. Among the group studied, several
    thousand consultants at IBM, those with strong links to a manager produced an
    average of $588 of revenue per month over the norm.
  • Researchers at IBM Research and MIT's Sloan School of Management found that the
    average e-mail contact was worth $948 in revenue. To unearth that and other
    data, they used mathematical formulas to analyze the e-mail traffic, address
    books, and buddy lists of 2,600 IBM consultants over the course of a year.
    (Their identities were shielded from researchers, who viewed them only as
    encrypted numbers, known as hash codes.) They compared the communication
    patterns with performance, as measured by billable hours.

SSRN-Government Data and the Invisible Hand by David Robinson, Harlan Yu, William Zeller, Edward Felten

  • Today, government bodies consider their own websites to be a higher priority
    than technical infrastructures that open up their data for others to use. We
    argue that this understanding is a mistake. It would be preferable for
    government to understand providing reusable data, rather than providing
    websites, as the core of its online publishing responsibility.
