We describe the content and outcomes of the First Workshop on Open-Ended Evolution: Recent Progress and Future Milestones (OEE1), held during the ECAL 2015 conference at the University of York, UK, in July 2015. We briefly summarize the content of th... Read More about Open-Ended Evolution: Perspectives from the OEE1 Workshop in York.

Monotonicity of fitness landscapes and mutation rate control (2016)
Journal Article
Channon. (2016). Monotonicity of fitness landscapes and mutation rate control. Journal of Mathematical Biology, 1491-1524. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00285-016-0995-3

A common view in evolutionary biology is that mutation rates are minimised. However, studies in combinatorial optimisation and search have shown a clear advantage of using variable mutation rates as a control parameter to optimise the performance of...
