Abstract
This paper explores how Learned Guidance Functions (LGFs)— a pre-training method used to smooth search landscapes—can be used as a fitness function for evolutionary algorithms. A new form of LGF is introduced, based on deep neural network learning, and it is shown how this can be used as a fitness function. This is applied to a test problem: unscrambling the Rubik’s Cube. Comparisons are made with a previous LGF approach based on random forests, and with a baseline approach based on traditional error-based fitness.
