artificial life and evolutionary algorithms
Artificial life refers to the study and creation of lifelike systems using computers or machines. It aims to replicate essential properties of natural life, such as reproduction, adaptation, and self-organization. It involves simulating biological processes and behaviors to understand the fundamental principles of life. Evolutionary algorithms are computational techniques inspired by the process of natural evolution, which use principles like reproduction, mutation, and selection to find optimal solutions to complex problems. These algorithms involve creating a population of candidate solutions and iteratively evolving them over generations, where fitter solutions have a higher chance of survival and passing their traits to the next generation. By continuously improving and refining solutions, evolutionary algorithms offer a robust optimization method applicable to various fields.
