Out of curiosity has anyone ever attempted to prototype a hardware block based on evolution principles? Doing it on an fpga is probably a bad idea since we wont be able to implement the results in more copies but this could potentially also happen in a software simulation where the input and output interfaces of the hardware block are pre defined On Apr 28, 2017 2:47 PM, "mike.v...@gmail.com" <mike.v...@gmail.com> wrote:
