Genetic Algorithms

Return to top of page
Teacher: Doug Ricket
Year: 1998 (fall)
Program: Splash
Category: Computer Science

Can computers program themselves? Can they come up with solutions that beat the best human ingenuity? Is there any limit to their progress or is humankind on its way out? Genetic algorithms are used in science and engineering to create adaptive systems - programs that, by using tools based on what biology has taught us about how organisms evolve, can themselves evolve to meet unforeseen challenges. The class will be introduced to some of the ideas at the forefront of genetic algorithms research and will have a chance to create their own.

Estimated attendance: 25 students (including other sections of the same class).
