Evolution of Algebraic Terms

EAT is software implementation of the algorithms described in papers Evolution of Algebraic Terms (EAT) [1][2][3][4]. Given an arbitrary performance specification, the program systematically designs a digital circuit using binary logic on groupoids of size 3 or larger. The program's success is documented by its ability to consistently find such designs from an incredibly vast search space in fractions of a second. It has applications in both the fields of Mathematics and Computer Engineering.

Installation
