The Evolution of Evolutionary Computation

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 2773))

Abstract

Evolutionary computation has enjoyed a tremendous growth for at least a decade in both its theoretical foundations and industrial applications. Its scope has gone far beyond binary string optimisation using a simple genetic algorithm. Many research topics in evolutionary computation nowadays are not necessarily ”genetic” or ”evolutionary” in any biological sense. This talk will describe some recent research efforts in addressing several fundamental as well as more applied issues in evolutionary computation. Links with traditional computer science and artificial intelligence will be explored whenever appropriate.
