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 ...

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 ...

Quantitative biologists have designed a new machine learning technique for predicting evolutionary pathways. It could prove a valuable tool for biologists studying rapidly evolving viruses or cancer.

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, ...
