Evolving Objects (EO): an Evolutionary Computation Framework

+

EO is a template-based, ANSI-C++ evolutionary computation library which helps you to write your own stochastic optimization algorithms insanely fast.

+ +
We have lost all the mailing-list subscriptions in a crash, please subscribe again on the eodev-main subscription page.
+ +

Evolutionary algorithms forms a family of algorithms inspired by the theory of evolution, that solve various problems. + They evolve a set of solutions to a given problem, in order to produce the best results. + These are stochastic algorithms, because they iteratively use random processes. + The vast majority of these methods are used to solve optimization problems, and may be also called "metaheuristics". + They are also ranked among computational intelligence methods, a domain close to artificial intelligence. +

+ +

+ + + +

+ +

With the help of EO, you can easily design evolutionary algorithms that will find solutions to virtually all kind of hard optimization problems, from continuous to combinatorial ones.

+ +

Features

+ +

Component-based framework

+ +

Designing an algorithm with EO consists in choosing what components you want to use for your specific needs, just as building a structure with Lego blocks.

+

If you have a classical problem for which available code exists (for example if you have a black-box problem with real-valued variables), you will just choose components to form an algorithm and connect it to your fitness function (which computes the quality of a given solution).

+

If your problem is a bit more exotic, you will have to code a class that represents how your individuals (a solution to your problem) are represented, and perhaps some variations operators, but most of the other operators (selection, replacement, stopping criteria, command-line interface, etc.) are already available in EO.

+

+ + +

Main Features

+ + + +

Portability

+

EO should work on Windows and any Un*x-like operating system with a + standard-conforming C++ development system.

+ +

Recent versions of EO have been tested on the following platforms: +

+ + + +

Recent versions of EO uses the CMake portable build system, that permits to easily generate a build chain for your environment.

+ +

If you have tested EO on a system not listed here, please let + us know.

+ +

If you are working on a system with an older C++ compiler there + is a good chance that eo-0.9.3z.1 works. It is tested on Linux + with gcc-2.9x and several systems (IRIX, Solaris) with egcs.

+ + +

Presentations

+ +

A functional and "philosophical" overview of EO was presented at EA'01 conference. + You can download the paper + or the + slides.

+ +

A PowerPoint presentation shows the EO philosophy, and + it includes a Visual Basic macro for evolving objects in Visual Basic + for Applications.

+ +

EO is described in the following scientific article:
+ M. Keijzer, J.J. Merelo, G. Romero, G., M. Schoenauer, + "Evolving + objects: A general purpose evolutionary computation + library", Artificial Evolution, 2310, 829--888 (2002).

Download

+ +

The current stable release is EO 1.0. + It supports any standard-compliant C++ compiler.

+ +

You can obtain the latest version directly via GIT + or browse the repository online. + +

+ +

All releases can be obtained from the SourceForge download + area.

+ + +

Documentation

+ +

The tutorial demonstrates that writing an evolutionary algorithm + evolving your own structures is now easy, using ready-to-use + template files. Although the tutorial has not been upgraded for some + time now and refers to version 0.9.2 of EO, it nevertheless remains the + best way to dive into EO. You can start by trying it on-line at LRI + or SourceForge, + before downloading it. The + tutorial is also included in the released + sources.

+ +

The latest tutorial + release. +

+ +

The complete code is also well documented and you can look at the + generated interface + documentation.

+ +

The easiest way to create a complete new EO-project, even for new + genomes, is to use the script provided in tutorial/Templates/; see + the README in that directory and lesson 5 of the tutorial for + detail.

Development

+ +

Mailing-lists

+ +

EO is an open development effort; that is why we have + created mailing lists to discuss future developments, solve technical + problems, announce releases, publish patches, and discuss evolutionary + computation in general. Browse the archives or join the EO mailing lists.

+ + +

Get involved

+ +

The following resources are available, thanks to sourceforge

Related software

+ +

ParadisEO provides EO extensions for + the flexible design of single solution-based metaheuristics, + metaheuristics for multi objective optimization as well as hybrid, parallel and distributed + metaheuristics.

+ +

DegaX is an ActiveX control which embeds EO 0.8.4. +

+ + +

Authors

+ +

EO was started by the Geneura + Team at the University of Granada, headed by Juan Julián Merelo. The original Web site is also the only place where you + will find old releases of EO (up to 0.8.7), but beware that it is not + compatible at all with the current version.

+ +

The developement team has then been reinforced by Maarten Keijzer, the C++ + wizzard, and Marc Schoenauer. + Later came Jeroen + Eggermont, who, among other things, did a lot of work on GP, + INRIA Dolphin Team, Olivier König, who did a + lot of useful additions and cleaning of the code and Jochen Küpper, working on + infrastructure maintenance.
