Patent attributes
Methods and systems that allow neural network systems to control adaptively groups of automated machines to achieve a common goal. In particular, a number of automated machines can be divided into multiple groups. Each group having one or more automated machines, and the automated machines belong to each group is to use an identical neural network (that is, having the same neural network structure and the same set of coefficients). As the groups of automated machines operate to achieve the common goal, some groups may perform better compared with other groups. If so, the neural network of the better performing group is copied to automated machines in other groups to ensure more automated machines also improve the results in achieving the common goal.
