Welcome to EA 2026
The biennial International Conference on Artificial Evolution will celebrate its 17th edition in October 2026 on the French Riviera in Nice (France), a region well known for its famous Promenade des Anglais ("Walkway of the English"), the Festival de Cannes (32 km), the Monaco F1 Grand Prix (20 km), and the world perfume capital Grasse (40 km)...
EA is a non-profit conference dedicated to optimisation techniques that simulate natural evolution. Researchers interested in models of natural evolution and complex systems are encouraged to submit papers to EA. This year we would like to focus on the combination of metaheuristics and reinforcement learning.
Authors of accepted papers are strongly encouraged to attend the conference in person to promote interaction, questions, and discussion among participants. Remote presentations will only be permitted under exceptional circumstances.
All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, which will be available shortly before the conference. A selection of the best oral papers will be published in a volume of the LNCS series of Springer-Verlag (as in previous editions https://link.springer.com/conference/ae).
