Scientists have prototyped a new method for 'rationally engineering' enzymes to deliver improved performance. They have devised an algorithm, which takes into account an enzyme's evolutionary history, ...
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) represent a class of heuristic optimisation methods inspired by natural selection and Mendelian genetics. They iteratively evolve a population of candidate solutions ...
Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research says that when quantum computing becomes generally available, evolutionary algorithms for training huge neural networks could become a very important and ...
