Constantly "re-rolling the dice", combining and selecting: "Evolutionary algorithms" mimic natural evolution in silico and lead to innovative solutions for complex problems. Constantly “re-rolling the ...

Immigration is generally considered an option in genetic algorithms, but I have found immigration to be extremely useful in almost all situations where I use evolutionary optimization. The idea of ...

Assistant Professor Robert MacCurdy and his collaborators have won the ACM SIGEVO Impact Award for their outstanding contributions in the field of genetic and evolutionary computation. The award ...

Evolutionary computation comprises a family of metaheuristic algorithms inspired by the principles of natural evolution – reproduction, mutation, recombination, and selection – which are utilised to ...

This course will guide students on their own intellectual journey in evolutionary computation. Early lectures provide a jumping off point — an overview of genetic algorithms, evolutionary strategies, ...

April 15 (UPI) --Scientists have developed a new algorithm that can predict how a protein could evolve to become highly effective or totally unproductive. The machine learning model -- detailed this ...
