Evolving Inborn Knowledge For Fast Adaptation in Dynamic POMDP Problems [PDF]
Rapid online adaptation to changing tasks is an important problem in machine learning and, recently, a focus of meta-reinforcement learning. However, reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms struggle in POMDP environments because the state of the system, essential in a RL framework, is not always visible. Additionally, hand-designed meta-RL architectures

A quantitative screen for metabolic enzyme structures reveals patterns of assembly across the yeast metabolic network. [PDF]
Despite the proliferation of proteins that can form filaments or phase-separated condensates, it remains unclear how this behavior is distributed over biological networks. We have found that 60 of the 440 yeast metabolic enzymes robustly form structures,
