Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) is a robust evolutionary algorithm that represents computational solutions as directed graphs, incorporating redundant genes to enhance the efficiency of its search ...

Say what you will about magnetotactic bacteria, they’re never disoriented. They contain their own compass needles, which are built of linked magnetosomes, nanosized magnetic particles. These ...

I used to to write short stories for awhile after college, and big surprise, they were all of the "science fiction" variety. In one of them, I opened with a bearded man on the cover of Time magazine ...

Timber is becoming increasingly popular as the most sustainable construction material. But structural timber design is not easy. Currently, floor framing designers produce many possible designs before ...

We use genetic programming to find variants of the well-known Nawaz, En-score and Ham (NEH) heuristic for the permutation flow shop problem. Each variant uses a different ranking function to ...

Ginkgo Bioworks is now worth $4 billion after a $290 million capital infusion that will give the company the cash to dramatically expand its developer shop for genetic programming. The Boston-based ...

Researchers have successfully developed a modular synthetic translational coupling element (SynTCE), significantly enhancing ...
