The Emergence of Modularization from Architecture Search via Optimal Transport

Author: Ben Goertzel
Year: 2025
Venue: AGI-25 conference paper
Links: No stable public abstract link added yet

Summary

A paper on how modular organization can emerge from architecture search when viewed through an optimal-transport lens. In the current wiki stack it functions as a theoretical justification for why subsystem separation and role-specialized cooperation are not arbitrary design choices but can arise naturally from search and adaptation pressures.

Relevance to Hyperon

This paper is most relevant to PRIMUS Full, where modular cognitive subsystems are treated as a core design principle, and to TransWeave Full, where structural reuse and cross-module mappings depend on stable modular boundaries. It is currently represented in the Publications overview but merits its own landing card because the PRIMUS architecture leans on this argument.
