Abstract
The inaugural workshop on Developmental Neural Networks was held at PPSN (Parallel Problem Solving from Nature) 2018 in Coimbra, Portugal. The aim of this workshop is to encourage approaches which focus on the development of artificial neural networks (ANN). In nature, brains are built through a process of biological development in which many aspects of the network of neurons and connections change, shaped by external information received through sensory organs. However, many modern artificial neural networks do not include developmental mechanisms and regard learning as the adjustment of connection weights, while some that do use development restrain it to a period before the ANN is used. The first edition of the workshop demonstrated a broad interest in this nascent topic.
