Date: Thu, 12 Aug 93 13:57:23 PDT From: John Koza Subject: Genetic programming announcement CALL FOR PAPERS GENETIC PROGRAMMING TRACK June 26 (Sunday) to June 26 (Wednesday), 1994 Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel Lake Buena Vista, Florida At the IEEE CONFERENCE ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION As part of the IEEE WORLD CONGRESS ON COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE Sponsored by the IEEE Neural Networks Council Papers are being solicited for a 3-day Genetic Programming track at the IEEE Conference on Evolutionary Compuation. The IEEE Conference on Evolutionary Compuation will be held as part of the larger and longer IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence sponsored by the IEEE Neural Networks Council to be held from June 26 (Sunday) to July 2 (Saturday), 1994. The multi-conference will include the 1994 IEEE Conference on Neural Networks and the FUZZ/IEEE '94 conference as well as numerous tutorials on genetic programming, genetic algorithms, evolutionary computation, neural networks, and fuzzy logic. Topics: Theoretical and applied aspects of genetic programming, Tierra, and other systems for evolving computer programs. Lee Altenberg, Duke University Peter J.
