Genetic Programming

Autorentext
Michael O'Neill [BSc. (UCD), PhD (UL)] is a lecturer in the Department of Computer Science and Information Systems at the University of Limerick. He has over 70 publications on biologically inspired algorithms (BIAs). He coauthored the Springer title "Grammatical Evolution -- Evolutionary Automatic Programming in an Arbitrary Language", Genetic Programming Series, 2003, 160 pp., ISBN 1-4020-7444-1. He is one of the two original developers of the Grammatical Evolution algorithm, research that spawned an annual invited tutorial at the largest evolutionary computation conference and an international workshop, and is also on a number of relevant organising committees (e.g., GECCO 2005). Michael is a regular reviewer for the leading evolutionary computation (EC) journals, namely IEEE Trans. on Evolutionary Computation, MIT Press's Evolutionary Computation, and Springer's Genetic Programming and Evolvable Hardware journal.

Zusammenfassung

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th European Conference on Genetic Programming, EuroGP 2007, held in Valencia, Spain in April 2007 colocated with EvoCOP 2007. The 21 revised plenary papers and 14 revised poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 submissions. The papers address fundamental and theoretical issues, along with a wide variety of papers dealing with different application areas.
