Algorithm::Evolutionary - Perl extension for performing paradigm-free evolutionary algorithms.
use Algorithm::Evolutionary;
Algorithm::Evolutionary is a set of classes for doing object-oriented evolutionary computation in Perl. Why would anyone want to do that escapes my knowledge, but, in fact, we have found it quite useful for our own purposes. Same as Perl itself.
The design principle of Algorithm::Evolutionary is flexibility: it should be very easy to extend using this library, and it should be also quite easy to program what's already there in the evolutionary computation community. Besides, the library classes should have persistence provided by XML modules.
The algorithm allows to create simple evolutionary algorithms, as well as more complex ones, that interface with databases or with the web.
The project is hosted at <a href='http://opeal.sourceforge.net'>Sourceforge </a>. Latest aditions, and nightly updates, can be downloaded from there before they are uploaded to CPAN. That page also hosts the mailing list, as well as bug reports, news, updates, whatever.
