(3 units). Study of algorithms based upon biological theories of evolution, applications to machine learning and optimization problems. Possible topics: Genetic Algorithms, Classifier Systems, and Genetic Programming. Recent work in the fields of Artificial Life (swarm intelligence, distributed agents, behavior-based AI) and of connectionism. This course is equivalent to COMP 5206 at Carleton University. Course Component: Lecture Precludes additional credit for COMP 4107.
