Evolution of Multi-Layered MIMO Artificial Neural Networks Using Grammatical Evolution

We have been publishing about grammatical evolution in quite a lot of detail in the past. Here is another one. In this work, we have developed the ability to evolve multi-input multi-output neural networks using grammatical evolution. The main target…

Hybrid Optimization And GELAB

Recently we released Blizzard. It is capable of doing hybrid optimization using GELAB. Hybrid optimization is an important family of learning algorithms. Its main benefit in plain words is that it is helpful for training machines to perform intricate tasks.…

Neural Networks For Intelligent Control

Recently we have been involved in the development of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) neural networks. These can be useful for training intelligent controllers. And that was our focus too. We aim to use them for the design of smart controllers for…

NUAV Testbed Goes Viral

Hi folks, We have made the source code of NUAV testbed available in the public domain. Now you can clone the repository and play with it. Detailed instructions are given in the readme files. Happy droning! Adil Raja / NUAV…

A Tutorial on Simulating Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

We have been working on simulating autonomous drones for quite some time now. We published details of our work in the past. Recently, we thought about publishing our experiences with the feat of simulating drones. Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)…

NUAV – A Testbed for Development of UAVs

In a remote town of Pakistan, in an increasing rural setup, we developed a testbed for simulating drone planes. Our idea was that if we could glue a cutting-edge flight simulator with state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms, innovation will follow spontaneously.…

Simulators as Drivers of Cutting Edge Research

We believe that simulations can lead to better systems. This is to say that instead of employing real hardware for development, it would be much better to simulate them first somehow. Having the shrewdness of artificial intelligence behind, and the…
