abstract = "Teaching experience shows that during educational
process student perceive graphical information better
than analytical relationships. As a possible solution,
there could be the use of package Matlab in realization
of different algorithms for IT studies. Students are
very interested in modern data mining methods, such as
artificial neural networks, fuzzy logic, clustering and
evolution methods. Series of research were carried out
in order to demonstrate the suitability of the Matlab
for the purpose of visualization of various simulation
models of some data mining disciplines, particularly
genetic algorithms. Nowadays the possibilities of
evolutionary algorithms are widely used in many
optimization and classification tasks. There are four
paradigms in the world of evolutionary algorithms:
evolutionary programming, evolution strategies, genetic
algorithms and genetic programming. This paper analyses
present-day approaches of genetic algorithms and
genetic programming and examines the possibilities of
genetic programming that will be used in further
research. Genetic algorithm learning methods are often
undeservedly forgotten, although the implementation of
their algorithms is relatively strong and can be
implemented even for students. In the research part of
the study the modelling capabilities in data mining
studies were demonstrated based on genetic algorithms
and real examples. We assume that students already have
prior knowledge of genetic algorithms.",
