First lecture Introduction to Evolutionary Computation Second lecture Genetic Programming Inverted CERN School of Computing 2017 Daniel Lanza CERN Agenda Genetic Programming Introduction to . Scientific Theory. Social use of the word “theory”. Not the same as in science. Implies a hunch or a casual guess. Scientific Theory. 1. Highly probable explanation based on vast collections of scientific data. Which one?. There are 3 great universal questions. 1) Where did I come from?. 2) Why am I here?. 3) Where am I going?. The answer to the last 2 questions are dependent upon the answer to the first question. . Evolution- changes in the characteristics of groups of organisms over time . Charles Darwin was the first to propose a feasible . mechanism. for evolution. It is called . natural selection. . . Evolution by Natural Selection is a theory. . The Importance of Evolution in Ecology. Ecologists study proximate or “how” questions:. How nutrients flow through ecosystems. Evolutionary biologists study ultimate or “why” questions:. Why does a stickleback fish have armor in one lake but not another?. Which one?. There are 3 great universal questions. 1) Where did I come from?. 2) Why am I here?. 3) Where am I going?. The answer to the last 2 questions are dependent upon the answer to the first question. . The Smallest Unit of Evolution. A common misconception is that organisms evolve during their lifetimes. Natural selection acts on individuals, but only populations evolve. Consider, for example, a population of medium ground finches on Daphne Major Island. A mechanism for change in populations.. Any change in the . inherited . traits within a population across generations. Individuals better adapted to their environment tend to survive and . produce more offspring. Authors: Kyu . Han . Koh et. al.. Presented . by : . Ali Anwar. ABOUT ME. B.Sc. Electrical Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Lahore, Pakistan. M.Sc.

Biological evolution happens at the __________ level, not the individual organism level.. All three definitions mention genetic changes or changes in allele frequency within a population from one generation to the next.. Recent Evolution in Humans. Evolution is very much still happening today — and it's happening to us.. Right here, right now.. Our genes constantly change over time thanks to the power of selection.. . SYFTET.
