Applied evolutionary algorithms in JAVA (With CD-ROM)

From MaRDI portal





Since the early days of electronic data processing, programs were developed, to imitate functions of nature. A special aspect thereby are evolutionary algorithms. With them research is done in the natural process of evolution. The book of Ghaenea Hercock gives a good overview of many artificial intelligence approches, developed in the course of the years. Center of the book is a Java based collection of tools for the production of evolutionary algorithms. The sample applications cover a broad spectrum. They discuss image processing, mobile robot control, fuzzy logic control systems and network optimization problems. Evolutionary algorithms are complex. So in commercial data processing they are not wide spread. To quote the author: ``There remains a vast amount of virgin territory to be explored in the realms of evolutionary algorithms and hardware. (Page 116). Students and computer scientists, who look for an overview of evolutionary algorithms, will receive a well readable composition of the most important procedures. Furthermore with the enclosed CD-ROM they will get a collection of Java based tools for experimenting and some articles.
