Abstract
Many nature-inspired mechanisms have been presented for computational design and optimization. This paper introduces a population-based approach inspired by a form of cultural learning - imitation. Imitation is typically defined as learning through the copying of others. In particular, it is used in this paper to design simple circuits using a discrete dynamical system representation - Turing's unorganised machines. Initial results suggest the imitation computation approach presented is competitive with evolutionary computation, i.e., another class of stochastic population-based search, to design circuits from such recurrent NAND gate networks. Synchronous and asynchronous circuits are considered. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
