Live from GECCO-IV: The right tutorials

GECCO, day 2. Still blogging offline. The conference has not started yet, but today I am chasing tutorials. I always like the chance to attend different workshops and tutorials for free two days before the conference. As mentioned in an early post, yesterday we had the eighth International Workshop on Learning Classifier Systems. Today, there are two related tutorials.

The first tutorial was Martin Butz’s and “The XCS Learning Classifier Systems: From Theory to Applications”. The second related tutorial was by Tim Kovacs with a general introduction to “Learning Classifier Systems”. Both gave a nice overview on the Michigan style classifiers---should we start a no Pittsburgh left behind tutorial? ;)

Mental note to self: could we rearrange the schedule next year so we can have the tutorial before the workshop? It may help bring more people in to the LCS world.

Another mental note to self: there is no talk about creativity and innovation support, should we have a talk about the DISCUS effort next year?

A final note for Nosophorus. On my way from Martin’s tutorial to the OBUPM 2005 workshop I saw Ingo Rechenberg getting ready for his tutorial. Sorry, I could not stop by, but I can tell you that the room was getting crowded. Then, I came back because Kumara Sastry was giving his in the same room. I just so people still talking about his presentation.

Sounds like some great stuff going on down there. Thanks for posting updates from GECCO for interested students and LCS folk who couldn't make it.

It's interesting that two of the first workshops were on parameter setting and learning classifiers. Having recently spent a bit of time tweaking parameters with XCS, I think you've picked some fantastic topics.
 
Hallo!! :D

Oh, It's a little bit sad to me to receive this news, but it's OK. :D

But, would be very nice to know the things that the "Evolutionary Computation Hero" told about engineering from biology. :D

Thank you, Xavier, I'm happy to know that Ingo's tutorial was crowded. :D

Até Mais!! :D
