OPTIMIZATION BY BUILDING AND USING
PROBABILISTIC MODELS 2001
Bird-of-a-feather Workshop
at the
Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference 2001
( GECCO-2001 )
San Francisco, California, July 7 - 11, 2001 (Saturday - Wednesday)
A recombination of
the Sixth Annual Genetic Programming Conference (GP-2001) and
the International Conference on Genetic Algorithms (ICGA-2001)
organized by
Martin Pelikan and Kumara Sastry
to be held on Saturday, July 7, 2001
WORKSHOP SUMMARY
Algorithms that replace two-parent recombination of genetic
algorithms by building and simulating a probabilistic model
of promising solutions have received much attention over
the past years. The proposed methods resolve many problems
of other evolutionary algorithms and are increasingly used
to solve various problem of practical and theoretical importance.
Theory was designed to understand the dynamics of the algorithms
as well as their limits.
The purpose of this workshop is to
- review and describe the basic principles of discussed methods,
- present recent developments in the covered area of research,
- discuss current problems and future directions of research
in this area, and
- encourage communication among active researchers in the area
and other participants.
The length of the workshop is 4 hours. The workshop will start
by an introduction to the field by Martin Pelikan. This will be
followed by about 5-7 presentations. The workshop will finish
with a panel discussion.
PARTICIPATION
Presentations will be selected according to the submitted 10-page
papers which will be reviewed by at least two members of the
international program committee. Accepted papers will be available
in electronic form before the workshop. Abbreviated versions of
the papers will be later published in the workshop proceedings.
The length of each paper will be determined by the number of
accepted papers.
For more detailed submission guidelines and recent updates,
see the workshop pages at

IMPORTANT DATES (subject to change)
Paper submission deadline: February 15, 2001
Decisions will be mailed by: April 1, 2001
Submissions of camera-ready papers: April 20, 2001

We are looking forward to your participation at the second
workshop OBUPM-2001 which is a great opportunity to meet and
discuss the covered topics for researchers in this area of
research as well as the ones who would like to learn more
about using probabilistic models for a more powerful
recombination.

ANNOUNCEMENT
AND
CALL FOR PAPERS
EST CONGRESS - COPENHAGEN 2001
Claims, Changes and Challenges
in Translation Studies
30 AUGUST - 1 SEPTEMBER 2001
Papers are invited for the Third International Congress of the European
Society for Translation Studies, to be held at the Copenhagen Business
School, Denmark.
The Congress aims at providing an international forum for scholars,
teachers, and practitioners involved in Translation Studies, and papers
are invited from EST members and non-members alike on topics concerning
new claims and challenges in the discipline.
The Congress programme will be organised with plenaries, panels, papers,
posters and polemics. A selection of contributions will be published
in the Proceedings. There will be a book exhibition and an opportunity
to set up information stands for research projects. In addition, there
will be pre-congress seminars in the afternoon of 29 August on specific
topics related to research training: localisation, community
interpreting, and corpora and Translation Studies. Each seminar will run
if at least 20 participants sign up for it.
The Congress languages will be English, French, German and Spanish.
Contributions may be given, and abstracts submitted, in any of these
languages.
Pre-registration form and abstract should be submitted by 30 November
2000 to:
EST Congress 2001 Phone: +45 38 15 32 50

DK-2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark
Abstracts (max. 300 words) should be sent electronically (preferably as
Word 7.0 attachment) and on paper.
A second circular with a list of all contributions accepted by the
Scientific Committee as well as further information will be issued in
February
2001.
Web pages with info and updates about the conference are scheduled for
late November, 2000, at: www.cbs.dk/EST
