BrilliANT: The Winner Entry of the GECCO’2007 Ant Wars Contest

by Wojciech Jaśkowski, Krzysztof Krawiec, Bartosz Wieloch
Abstract:
BriliANT is the name of a program that won the GECCO’2007 Ant Wars contest. Ant Wars was one of the competitions organized within GECCO’2007, Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, in London, England, July 7-12, 2007. The goal was to evolve a controller for a virtual ant that collects food in a square toroidal grid environment in the presence of a competing ant. The report describes the method and technology we used to evolve BriliANT.
