I have seen the genetic algorithm demo of mona lisa and its pretty cool. My problem with it is that using genetic algorithm for something like that seems "forced" because there's no real "evolution" involved in it.
Would it be possible to use genetic algorithm to .. say, evolve a face by beautifying it? by "mating" it with anther face? It would be an interesting experiment. Perhaps I'll explore this concept in code.
- jfarmer 18y agoThat's because it's not a GA, as far as I can tell, it's just a hill-climbing algorithm. That's not to say it isn't cool, but it's not GA. There are also a bunch of articles out there confusing GA and A/B testing. Hrmph! </curmudgeon>

- ktharavaad 18y agoFacinating! this is pretty awesome. It'll be cool if there's a way to generate synthetic realistic images from this.
