David B. Fogel

Dr. David B. Fogel (born February 2, 1964), is a pioneer in evolutionary computation. Dr. Fogel received his Ph.D. in engineering from the University of California, San Diego in 1992. He is currently CEO of Natural Selection, Inc.[1] He is probably best known for his research project, Blondie24, in which a machine evolved itself into an expert checkers player. Dr. Fogel was the founding editor-in-chief of the IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation,[2] and general chairman for the 2002 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence.[3]

Dr. Fogel is a Fellow of the IEEE,[4] and received the 2004 IEEE Kiyo Tomiyasu Award.[5] He is the author of six books and over 200 publications in evolutionary computing and neural networks. Dr. Fogel was president of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society in 2008-2009.[6]
