Paul (Santa Clara) and I implemented a simple Genetic Algorithm
framework primarily to learn more about GA/GP. Paul had never done
anything with it before and I had played around with it in the past.
What we did was based on what I'd done before, we ported the code from
JScheme to Clojure. The problem isn't really a great example for
applying GA to, but it is easy to understand and see how to GA works -
I think it's a good pedagogical example.
What I was wondering is if there was interest in me giving an 'Intro
to GA' talk using our example as a guide.
The outline might be something like:
- What is GA in 60s
- Where did it come from?
- What have some people done with it? / what's so great about it
- Ok then, how do you do it?
- Walk through the example
- Share some of my observations about GA
- aspects to watch out for when implementing
- when not to use it
- further ideas?
What does the group think? I think I could have something ready in
3-4wks if there is interest.
