This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Artificial Evolution, EA 2005, held in Lille, France, in October 2005.
The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 78 submissions. The papers cover all aspects of artificial evolution: genetic programming, machine learning, combinatorial optimization, co-evolution, self-assembling, artificial life and bioinformatics.
Author(s): Denis Robilliard, Sébastien Mahler, Dominique Verhaghe, Cyril Fonlupt (auth.), El-Ghazali Talbi, Pierre Liardet, Pierre Collet, Evelyne Lutton, Marc Schoenauer (eds.)
