evoVersion: Visualizing evolutionary histories

Evolutionary computation is a field characterized by large data sets produced either through user-driven or automatic evaluation. Because of the sheer magnitude of evolved solutions that need to be reviewed and analyzed, it can be difficult to fully utilize evolutionary data effectively. To address this challenge we present evoVersion, a system capable of applying version control methodologies to assist with both the organization and visualization of evolutionary data for the purpose of building upon previous sessions and assisting with collaborative evolutionary design. Our system is implemented in a 3D game engine, which can make use of immersive and virtual reality visualization of evolutionary design experiments.
