Mechanisms of Evolutionary Computation Algorithms
This podcast discusses the basic mechanisms of evolutionary computation algorithms, which involve creating variations and then selecting the best ones through the use of an evolutionary approach. The focus is on identifying major transitions in biology and trying to apply those processes to computational algorithms.

In evolutionary computation algorithms, there is a genotype that encodes an individual and a decoding mechanism that produces the phenotype.

Summary
In evolutionary computation algorithms, there is a genotype that encodes an individual and a decoding mechanism that produces the phenotype. The creation of variation and selection is crucial for finding optimal individuals.
