It shows how human interaction, new representations, and approaches such as the evolution of open to extending the capabilities of evolutionary computation from optimization of existing solutions to innovation and the generation of solutions to an entirely new and original. This book takes a fresh look at creativity, exploring what it is and how the actions of evolution can resemble it. If you are a computing professional intelligent and curious, an artist's computer-literate, musician or designer, or a specialist in evolutionary computation and application, you will find an interesting survey of the most interesting work done in the area today. * Explore the use of evolutionary computation to produce new creations including contemporary melodies, photo-realistic face, a jazz composer in collaboration with the human, architectural design, working on electronic circuits, novel maneuver the aircraft, the art of two and three-dimensional, and the native protein. * Presents produces the design in black and white illustrations and color. * Includes twin-format audio / CD-ROM with music evolved and hands-on activities for readers, including the images evolve, animations, and source-code related to the text. * Describe in full the methods used so that readers with adequate skills and interest to replicate the work and extend it. * What is written for general computer science audiences, providing a coherent and integrated treatment in various disciplines.
