Dimensions of Dialogue
1st September 2019
A series of small experiments inspired by early proto-writing systems such as cuneiform and hieroglyphs. Here, new writing systems are created by challenging two neural networks to communicate information via images. Using the magic of machine learning, the networks attempt to create their own emergent language isolate that is robust to noise. This is similar to a machine learning architecture called generative adversarial networks (GANs) except that the networks are collaborating and not competing.
