The Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2005) will
present the latest high-quality results in the growing field of genetic
and evolutionary computation. Topics include: genetic algorithms,
genetic programming, evolution strategies, evolutionary programming,
real-world application, learning classifier systems and other
genetics-based machine learning, evolvable hardware, artificial life,
adaptive behavior, ant colony optimization, swarm intelligence,
biological applications, evolutionary robotics, evolutionary
combinatorial optimization, co-evolution, artificial immune systems,
and other topics. Each paper submitted to GECCO will be rigorously
reviewed, in a double-blind review process, by one of the 16 separate
and independent specialized program committees that make final
decisions, subject only to conference-wide space limitations and
procedures.
Loew's L'Enfant Plaza Hotel is centrally and conveniently located right
at the main junction station of the Washington DC subway system and
will offer special rates for GECCO attendees.
The GECCO-2005 conference will also offer $10,000 in prizes for
human-competitive results produced by genetic and evolutionary
computation. Visit http://www.human-competitive.org
The GECCO-2005 conference is co-located with the 2005 NASA/DoD
Conference on Evolvable Hardware Conference running from June 29 -
July 1 (Wednesday - Friday), 2005 at the Westin Grand Hotel
Washington, DC. Visit http://ic.arc.nasa.gov/projects/eh2005
