Progress in Evolutionary Computation: AI '93 and AI '94 Workshops on Evolutionary Computation, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, November 16, 1993, Armidale, NSW, Australia, November 21-22, 1994. Selected Papers / Edition 1

by Xin Yao

Overview

This volume contains the best carefully revised full papers selected from the presentations accepted for the AI '93 and AI '94 Workshop on Evolutionary Computation held in Australia.

The 21 papers included cover a wide range of topics in the field of evolutionary computation, from constrained function optimization to combinatorial optimization, from evolutionary programming to genetic programming, from robotic strategy learning to co-evolutionary game strategy learning. The papers reflect important recent progress in the field; more than half of the papers come from overseas.
