              15th Annual Genetic Programming Conference (GP)

         One Conference - Many Mini-Conferences - 15 Program Tracks

The Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2010) 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 applications, learning
classifier systems and other genetics-based machine learning, evolvable
hardware, artificial life, adaptive behavior, ant colony optimization,
swarm intelligence, biological applications, evolutionary robotics,
coevolution, artificial immune systems, and more.
