Abstract:
There is exciting news! The International Society for Genetic Algorithms (ISGA) and Genetic Programming, Inc. have joined efforts, recombined, and organized a new society: The International Society for Genetic and Evolutionary Computation (ISGEC). This follows the merger of the International Conference on Genetic Algorithms and the Genetic Programming Conference into a single conference: The Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO). This is exciting because the new society will have dues that include a subscription to Evolutionary Computation as well as the new journal Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines. This will help to link Evolutionary Computation more directly to the community that founded it and to associate the journal with a large body of researchers and application developers that would appear to be its natural readership. The journal Evolutionary Computation was founded as a grassroots effort and with a spirit of cooperation that embraced all aspects of the field. The new society builds on this theme.

Systematic Error: Methodological and Sampling Errors
Sampling errors originate from improper sampling methods or the wrong sample population. These errors can be minimized by refining the sampling strategy. Defective instruments or faulty calibrations are the sources of instrumental...

Critical Region, Critical Values and Significance Level
In hypothesis testing, a sample statistic is converted to a test statistic using z, t, or chi-square distribution. A critical region is an area under the curve in probability distributions demarcated by the critical value. When the test statistic falls in this region, it suggests that the null hypothesis must be rejected. As this region contains all those values of the test...
