AI & Alife

Resurrecting this section after eliminating it from my HOWTO. I'll be working on getting it up-to-date with interesting links. For now its just a copy of the old listing from the howto, plus a couple I've added here at the top.

AI related links from other sections of my site:

I'm really getting back into AI again. My frequented links. Note that toward the end of the list the sites seem to have been abandoned. I'm keeping them here in hope that they will come alive again someday.

Stuff from my originial howto links section:

AI/Alife Archives, Research, Bibliographies, etc.

These are a few of the many AI and Alife sites out there. These sites are good places to start hunting for more information or for finding software. I'll be adding more links to this list soon, as well as organizing it better. These links are not Linux specific, but I wanted to include them to provide a jump off point to the huge amount of info related to these topics located on the web.

Applications

I have flirted with various graphics applications at times and have a collected all the links I found useful on a separate page. Note that this page is old and there are quite possibly some dead links.
