Evolution has provided a source of inspiration for algorithm designers since the birth of computers. The resulting field, evolutionary computation, has been successful in solving engineering tasks ...

“Evolution is the true innovation machine,” says Professor Arnold, explaining that nature’s design works like a powerful algorithm that can scale from molecules to entire eco-systems.

With "Mind Evolution" LLMs can use search and genetic algorithms to generate and combine different solutions and find the optimal one.

“Evolutionary algorithms start out with a randomly generated population of from 50 to 500 candidate solutions. At each time step, or generation, all the individuals are evaluated and assigned a ...

While it took nature billions of years to evolve the first walking species, the new algorithm compressed evolution to lightning speed — designing a successfully walking robot in mere seconds. But the ...

Scientists have developed a new algorithm that can predict how a protein could evolve to become highly effective or totally unproductive.
