Summit 2014: Evolutionary and Genetic Algorithms / Tzofia Shiftan

from רברס עם פלטפורמה

Evolutionary algorithms open windows to the place where machines and biology meet. In this talk weI'll explore how evolutionary algorithms mimic and borrow from the way Mother Nature solves problems - all the way from solving puzzles, to social sciences to designing new kind of satellite antennas. We'll explore how we can model algorithms after the behaviors of different species in nature such as fireflies, Cuckoos and bees to solve everyday life problems. One cool hack we'll show is how you can use genetic algorithms to actually reverse engineer code for applications like search engines, or even chess algorithms. Last, we'll see how genetic algorithms can help solve NP hard problems such as the travelling salesman problem in new and creative ways. reversim2014 Evolutionary & Genetic Algorithms.mp3 Presentation: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByV-tXx7lTYsemMxcTBzcmZfc3c
