Collective Intelligence for Deep Learning: A Survey of Recent Developments

We survey ideas from complex systems such as swarm intelligence, self-organization, and emergent behavior that are gaining traction in ML. (Figure: Emergence of encirclement tactics in MAgent.) Introduction Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you would’ve noticed that artificial neural networks are now used everywhere. They’re impacting our everyday lives, from performing predictive tasks such as recommendations, facial recognition and object classification, to generative tasks such as machi...
