Human-Competitive awards 2018
William B. Langdon · ACM SIGEVOlution · 2019
The GECCO 2018 conference in Kyoto, Japan hosted the 15th annual "Humies" Awards. The first annual "Humies" competition was held at the 2004 Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2004) in Seattle (USA). With its generous prize money (provided by John Koza) it has become a staple of the Genetic and Evolutioary Computing calendar. The Humies offer the opportunity to the EC community to showcase its best work, work, which by definition, is better than human.
