LSS Members win Humies Award!

We are pleased to announce that the LSS members Jonas Schmitt, Sebastian Kuckuk, and Harald Köstler have won the Gold Award at the 19th Annual Humies Competition with their publications “Evolving Generalizable Multigrid-Based Helmholtz Preconditioners with Grammar-Guided Genetic Programming“ and “EvoStencils: a grammar-based genetic programming approach for constructing efficient geometric multigrid methods“.

The Humies Awards honor outstanding human-competitive results produced by any form of genetic and evolutionary computation that have been published in the open literature during the previous year.

Jonas Schmitt received the award in person at the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO) in Boston.
