A Comparison of Generational Evolutionary Variation Between a Rich CPPN Genome and a Flat Seeded CPPN GenomeA comparison of evolutionary variation produced when evolving the “Angel with Halo” object from EndlessForms with two different CPPN representations: its original rich CPPN genome and a flat CPPN genome produced by the seeded-CPPN technique. Each picture represents a generation. The generations of objects produced by the original rich CPPN genome are in the 'production' folder while the objects produced from the seeded CPPN are in the 'seed' folder. Each file is named under the following format 'genx_y_z_w.png', which represents the object (seeded or original, depending on folder) at generation x. To reach generation x+1 (for x < 15) objects from positions y, z and w were chosen randomly to be the parents. Object position is indexed at 0 and increases from left to right and top to bottom (first row is 0-4, inclusive).dryad.zip
