Eureqa

Eureqa was a proprietary modeling engine created in Cornell's Artificial Intelligence Lab and later commercialized by Nutonian, Inc.

The software used genetic algorithms to determine mathematical equations that describe sets of data in their simplest form, a technique referred to as symbolic regression.

[4] Lipson described the tool's benefit as dealing with fields that are overwhelmed with data but lack theory to explain it.

[6] This took place after Lipson had asked scientists from different disciplines to share their work to test Eureqa's versatility.

[8] People used the application for many uses including analyzing the herding of cattle and modeling the behavior of the stock market.
