Abstract: This research introduces an evolving neural model that combines learning from neural networks with evolutionary computation techniques to optimise paths in simulation systems. The suggested approach overcomes the shortcomings of traditional algorithms when faced with dynamic, complicated situations by merging structural and parametric optimisation. To improve flexibility, convergence speed, and generalisation performance, the model uses an actor-critic reinforcement learning scheme, evolutionary field optimisation, and neural architecture search. Analyses of experimental data show that the suggested method is more efficient, stable, and accurate than more conventional methods like Q-learning and DQN. Path planning, risk minimisation, and live system simulation are three areas where the results show evolving neural models could improve intelligent decision-making.
Keywords: topics covered include digital twins; computational intelligence; evolutionary algorithms; EAs; evolutionary neural networks; path optimisation; simulation systems; and actor-critical models.
