Do something really interesting with XCS, using either the JXCS or XCS+TS 1.2 software, and prepare a class presentation describing what you've done.
Anything is fair game. You can explore a particular problem we haven't discussed in class (in which case you'll describe the problem in your presentation), or you can modify the source code to see what happens if you use a different selection technique (or if you run the GA in a different place in the system), or you can run experiments using different parameter settings (in which case you will present your results in a table clearly stating what the settings were and what happened).
Expect your presentation to last 7 minutes (not including question time). Each presenter will have two designated questioners, plus you can expect at least one question from the general audience.
