Evolution to Knowledge

I have been lately diverted to semantic web endeavors. I am slowly coming back, tough,  to keep upgrading E2K with a list of features I have on the pipe. I would like to talk about one of the features: semantic web support for E2K. You may be wondering what does the semantic web has to do with genetic algorithms. My main motivation is standardization. The basic goal is to provide OWL ontologies which describes the possible space of E2K components and dependencies. The ripples of this standardization will propagate to configuration, execution, and analysis phases.

No, sometimes no news are good news. We are currently working on introducing new features to Evolution to Knowledge. Most of the new features we are working on introducing fitness inheritance techniques based on probabilistic model-building GAs and expanding the list of available evolutionary operators available. We also have the blueprints to build the necessary components to create an itinerary that implements XCS (although this one is running on a slighter low priority when compared to the previous ones). We hope that once GECCO 2007 submission deadline is over, we can push most of this components into a new release of E2K.
