Theory of Evolutionary Algorithms: A Bird's Eye View

In this paper we consider the most important questions research topics and technical tools used in various branches of evolutionary algorithms The road map we give is to facilitate the readers orientation in evolu tionary computation theory In the meanwhile this survey provides key references for further study and evidence that the eld of evolutionary computation is maturing rapidly having many...

Birds' eye view: a decade of perspectives.

O of Jan Drake’s happy innovations as editor of other significant events (i.e., the first issue of Genetics in 1916). These have fulfilled the retrospective function. Genetics was to initiate the publication of an essay, entitled Perspectives, at the beginning of each issue. The perspective and prospective functions have been achieved by articles that have integrated classic studies His idea wa...

A Birds Eye View on System Identification

System identification is concerned with obtaining good models from data, i.e. with data driven modeling. In this contribution the aim is to explain and discuss ideas, general approaches and theories underlying identification of linear systems. Identification of linear systems is a nonlinear problem and is prototypical also for many parts of identification of nonlinear systems.

The Birds-eye View: Neuropsychology of Adhd

What is binocular vision for? A birds' eye view.

It is proposed that with the possible exception of owls, binocularity in birds does not have a higher order function that results in the perception of solidity and relative depth. Rather, binocularity is a consequence of the requirement of having a portion of the visual field that looks in the direction of travel; hence, each eye must have a contralateral projection that gives rise to binocular...
