This full day workshop will involve presentations by approximately 12
selected
students pursing research in some aspect of evolutionary computation.
Students will
make 15-20 minute presentations to an audience that will include a
'mentor' panel of
established researchers in evolutionary computation. Presentations will
be followed
by a 10 minute question and discussion period led by the mentor panel.
To present, submit a 4-page paper to
Steven[D0T]Gustafson[AT]research[D0T]ge[D0T]com
describing your current research. Please submit a PDF in the ACM format,
details found at
http://www.sigevo.org/gecco-2009/papers.html, using a subject line of
"GECCO 2009
Graduate Workshop". Accepted papers will be published in the GECCO
Workshop Proceedings.
Students will also be invited present their work as a poster at the
evening
Poster Session - an excellent opportunity to network with industry and
academic
members of the community.
The goal of this workshop is to assist students regarding their
research: research
methodology, goals, and plans. Students will also receive feedback on
their
presentation style. Other attendees will benefit by learning about
current research,
engaging in technical discussions and meeting researchers with related
interests.
Other students are encouraged to attend as a means of strengthening
their own
research.
The group of presenting students will be chosen with the intent of
creating a
diverse group of students working on a broad range of topic areas.
Awards will be presented for best work and best presentation. See the
workshop
website additional details.
