    Learning and Evolution: An Introduction to Non-darwinian Evolutionary Computation

    The field of evolutionary computation has drawn inspiration from Darwinian evolution in which species adapt to the environment through random variations and selection of the fittest. This type of evolutionary ...

    Incremental Learning with Partial Instance Memory

    Agents that learn on-line with partial instance memory reserve some of the previously encountered examples for use in future training episodes. We extend our previous work by combining our method for selecting...

    Learning Patterns in Noisy Data: The AQ Approach

    In concept learning and data mining, a typical objective is to determine concept descriptions or patterns that will classify future data points as correctly as possible. If one can assume that the data contain...

    Learning from inconsistent and noisy data: The AQ18 approach

    In concept learning or data mining tasks, the learner is typically faced with a choice of many possible hypotheses characterizing the data. If one can assume that the training data are noise-free, then the gen...
