Evolution-in-Materio uses evolutionary algorithms (EA) to exploit the physical properties of unconfigured, physically rich materials, in effect transforming them into information processors. The potential of this technique for machine learning proble... Read More about Training a Carbon-Nanotube/Liquid Crystal Data Classifier Using Evolutionary Algorithms.
