Constitutes the proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Artificial Evolution, held in Strasbourg, France, in October 2009.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Artificial Evolution, EA 2013, held in Bordeaux, France, in October 2013. The 20 revised papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The papers are focused to theory, ant colony optimization, applications, combinatorial and discrete optimization, memetic algorithms, genetic programming, interactive evolution, parallel evolutionary algorithms, and swarm intelligence.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Artificial Evolution, EA 2015, held in Lyon, France, in October 2015.

The 18 revised papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The focus of the conference is on following topics: Evolutionary Computation, Evolutionary Optimization, Co-evolution, Artificial Life, Population Dynamics, Theory, Algorithmics and Modeling, Implementations, Application of Evolutionary Paradigms to the Real World, Dynamic Optimization, Machine Learning and hybridization...
