*****************************************************
The session organisers invite you to a special session of the Congress on
Evolutionary Computation 2001 (CEC 2001) .
Papers are due 5pm 12th JANUARY 2001, New Zealand time (depending where you are,
this is likely to be 11th January local time - note later time than advertised
for CEC 2001 papers) with acceptance notification 12th February 2001.
Please check the CEC 2001 web site (http://cec2001.kaist.ac.kr/) for details
regarding paper format. After preparing your paper according to the guidelines,
please insert page breaks between the title and authors, and after the authors,
to facilitate blind reviewing. Prepare a pdf version of the paper and send it
as an email attachment to all three of the organisers, by the due time. If you
cannot prepare pdf, please contact the organisers in good time, to arrange an
alternative submission mechanism.
Session Title:
Grammars in Evolutionary Computation
Description:
A significant number of authors have used grammars as a means to
define the search space of evolutionary systems, or to determine the genotype/
phenotype mapping. Others have used evolutionary systems to learn grammars
for particular applications. A few have combined both in ways which provide
incremental learning capabilities. This special session aims to bring these
researchers together to provide for cross-fertilisation of ideas and to
present recent advances in this expanding field.
Topic Areas Include:
* Grammatical GP: target language syntax & semantics, attribute
grammars,strong typing
* Grammar induction with GA and GP: regular, context-free, stochastic
grammars
* Hybrid Grammatical Systems
* L-systems
* Applications
All papers will be reviewed, and all accepted papers will appear in the CEC 2001
proceedings. We are currently negotiating arrangements for further publication.
We expect to be able to offer selected papers further publication of
extended versions of the work in journal/book series format.

12th February,2001 Reviews and notification of acceptance
