Subject: Fully funded Ph.D. position in evolving artificial
intelligence (neural networks, robotics, and/or deep learning)
A fully funded computer science Ph.D. position is available in any of
the following areas, especially in combinations of them: evolving
artificial intelligence, neural networks, robotics, and deep learning.
Postdoctoral positions are also available, but under different funding
arrangements (please email [log in to unmask] for details). Positions
ideally start this coming Fall (August 2013), but alternate start
dates are possible.

On behalf of the workshop organizers, we call for your
participation in the 16 very diverse workshops GECCO
is offering you this year. Please also have a look at the
workshops' own pages.
The workshop program is more than papers and talks, it
gives you the possibility to introduce new ideas and discuss
them with others, to connect to people working on similar
topics, and to develop common visions for the areas that
interest you the most. Be part of it!
