Personal information
A.E. (Guszti) Eiben is a professor of Artificial Intelligence on the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. He is one of the early birds of evolutionary computing in Europe (who literally wrote the book) and an expert in evolutionary robotics.
His main research concerns robots that can reproduce, evolve, and learn. His work is published in top journals (Nature, Science) and extensively covered by popular media (e.g., WIRED, New Scientist) in 10 countries.
His long-term goal is to demonstrate that artificial evolution can develop artificial intelligence and to understand the evolutionary interplay between the body and the brain.
