Breeding novel solutions in the brain: a model of Darwinian neurodynamics [version 2; referees: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]

Background: The fact that surplus connections and neurons are pruned during development is well established. We complement this selectionist picture by a proof-of-principle model of evolutionary search in the brain, that accounts for new variations in theory space. We present a model for Darwinian e...
