Evolution of digital images

The ability to create art is a uniquely human endeavor. Throughout history, humans have used paintings, drawings, songs, stories, and other art forms to communicate important ideas or events and to entertain. The advent of computers gave rise to a new medium for art. Computer generated art work has become popular in the entertainment and education industries. The paper uses genetic algorithms (GAs) to automatically evolve a set of unique digital images according to a predetermined set of criteria. By monitoring and automatically evaluating geometric features in images, the work reported in the paper intends to evolve interesting images with a variety of geometric features without the need for human intervention.
