Universal Algorithmic Intelligence

Alexis-Walid is a PhD student at Senckenberg who will describe his recent work applying ideas from AIT to evolutionary genetics:

Using Hector Zenil’s tools to estimate the Kolmogorov complexity of small strings and matrices, we will see evidence of algorithmicity in genetic network evolution and protein sequences, showing that not only is evolution “aware” of algorithmic information, it actively navigates the software landscape.

We will meet today (November 24th), which breaks the regular biweekly schedule, but at our usual 3 pm ET and zoom link: https://uwaterloo.zoom.us/j/7921763961?pwd=TDatET6CBu47o4TxyNn9ccL2Ia8HN4.1
