To which I add a paper I presented at an ALife conference many moons ago:
“The Influence of Parsimony and Randomness on Complexity Growth in Tierra”,
(http://www.arxiv.org/abs/nlin.AO/0604026)
It would seem that a bit of parsimony is desirable, but too much
parsimony counter productive. Sort of echo's Einstein's quote about
"simple as possible, and no simpler".
Mind you for ML (ie what everybody is calling AI these days), without
model parsimony, overfitting ensues.
