  1. Darwin machine

    A Darwin machine a 1987 coinage by William H. Calvin , by analogy to a Turing machine is a machine that, like a Turing machine, involves an iteration process that yields a high quality result, but, whereas a Turing machine uses logic , the Darwin machine uses rounds of variation, selection , and inheritance . In its original connotation, a Darwin machine is any process that bootstrap s quality by utilizing all of the six essential features of a Darwinian process A pattern is copied with variations , where populations of one variant pattern compete with another population, their relative success biased by a multifaceted environment natural selection so that winners predominate in producing the further variants of the next generation Darwin s inheritance principle . More loosely, a Darwin machine is a process that utilizes some subset of the Darwinian essentials, typically natural selection to create a non reproducing pattern, as in neural Darwinism . Many aspects of neural development utilize overgrowth followed by pruning to a pattern, but the resulting pattern does not itself create further copies. Darwin machine has been used multiple times to name computer programs after Charles Darwin . See also Artificial life Artificial intelligence Darwin among the Machines Evolutionary computation ...
