Fitness in evolutionary art and music: a taxonomy and future prospects
by Colin G. Johnson
International Journal of Arts and Technology (IJART), Vol. 9, No. 1, 2016

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the idea of fitness in art and music systems that are based on evolutionary computation. A taxonomy is presented of the ways in which fitness is used in such systems, with two dimensions: what the fitness function is applied to, and the basis by which the function is constructed. A large collection of papers are classified using this taxonomy. The paper then discusses a number of ideas that have not been used for fitness evaluation in evolutionary art and which might be valuable in future developments: memory, scaffolding, connotation and web search.
