A collection of examples where evolutionary computation was found to be useful in the design or implementation of a commerical product.
Shinkansen N700. A genetic algorithm was used to optimize the nose shape in likely the first use of EC for train design. The Series 700's maximum speed is 300km/hr (186mi/hr).


GenAlytics uses EC to identify credit risks, detect fraud and improve direct marketing.

Ishida uses "self-learning Genetic Algorithm (GA) technology" to improve automatic X-ray inspection systems.
