== Studies and early career ==
Peter Nordin was born in 1965 in [[Helsingborg]] but moved to [[Gothenburg]] in 1967, where he was raised. He began studies at [[Chalmers University of Technology]] in 1984 and completed the [[Master of Science|M.S.]] in [[computer science]] in 1988 and studied economics. He then worked as a [[knowledge engineer]] for [[artificial intelligence]] (AI) company, Infologics AB, focusing on [[research and development]] of [[knowledge-based systems]] and [[complex system]] [[Configure (computing)|configuration]].

Nordin began his research while at Infologics AB, Sweden. His work led to several European research projects ([[ESPRIT]]), including projects in [[machine learning]] ([[autonomous]] [[vehicles]]) and AI system development methods. He started his research in [[Genetic Programming]] in 1992. [[GP]]<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_programming</ref> is a type of evolutionary algorithm and a general [[automatic programming]] method that generates [[Turing complete]] [[algorithms]] – i.e. computers that write their own programs. In 1993, he started Dacapo AB,<ref>[http://www.hindawi.com/486024.html Short profile of Peter from Hindawi Publishing Corporation]</ref> a research and development company. He invented a method for automatic induction of binary machine code using genetic programming<ref>http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~wbl/biblio/gp-html/nordin_thesis.html</ref>. In 1997 he co-founded the american company RML Inc with the first commersial GP software<ref>http://www.rmltech.com</ref>. Nordin spent a large portion of 1995 and 1996 at the [[Dortmund University of Technology|University of Dortmund]], where he completed is doctoral studies under Professor Wolfgang Banzhaf. At Dortmund University he initiated research in [[evolutionary robotics]] and demonstrated for the first time that GP can be used for real-time, on-line [[training]] and [[control]] of [[robotics|robotic systems]]<ref>http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.53.5871</ref>.

In 1996, he co-authored a textbook on genetic programming<ref>Genetic Programming: An Introduction, Wolfgang Banzhaf, Peter Nordin, Robert E. Keller, and Frank D. Frandone, Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, Inc. (1998)</ref><ref>http://www.bokrecension.se/Peter-Nordin</ref>. In 1999, Peter Nordin created search engine company VILL AB<ref>http://www.nyteknik.se/nyheter/it_telekom/allmant/article10749.ece?stjarna=1</ref> and AI-company Tific AB<ref>www.tific.com</ref> and received the year’s Sten Gustafsson prize for entrepreneuring, awarded by the [[Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences]]<ref>http://www.iva.se/templates/Page.aspx?id=168</ref>.

== Robots and commercialization of AI ==
From 2000-2003, he was an associate professor at Chalmers’ [[complex adaptive system|Complex Adaptive Systems]] <ref>http://www2.gu.se/GU-journalen/3-00/personal.html</ref>. For a short period he lead an international master’s degree program in CAS, which he co-founded<ref>http://fy.chalmers.se/~frtbm/cas/index.html</ref>. He led the master’s program and supervised construction of hundreds of GP-based adaptive physical robots. During this time, he also started Chalmers’ Humanoid Project<ref>[http://humanoid.fy.chalmers.se/ The Humanoid Project]</ref> resulted in Sweden’s first full-scale [[humanoid robot]]s; Elvis, Elvina, and Priscilla<ref>http://mensnewsdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/pn_chalmers_300.JPG</ref>, which currently reside in Sweden’s National Museum of Science and Technology<ref>http://www.tekniskamuseet.se/templates/Page.aspx?id=20393</ref>. Robots from the Humanoid Project participated in “RoboCup”<ref>http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/RoboCup</ref> soccer matches for humanoid robots<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1948718.stm BBC - Robots train for World Cup]</ref> ([[RoboCup]]) in [[Japan]] in 2002. Much of this earlier work focused on evolutionary robotic [[training]] methods for: [[problem solving]], sound and [[image processing]], [[perception]] and advanced [[non-linear]] low-level control. Robots have also learned to walk on two legs without having foreknowledge by simulating the behaviour.<ref>[http://humanoid.fy.chalmers.se/text/cuba.pdf An Evolutionary Architecture for a Humanoid Robot]</ref> The robot Elvis, attracted some media interest and was seen by the public in more than 15 countries. The world first flying "flapping" adaptive [[ornithopter]] robot appeared in TV and other media<ref>http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2002/09/54900</ref>.The popular science book; “''Humanoider: Självlärande robotar och artificiell intelligens''”<ref>{{cite book

}}</ref>, was one result of this public interest<ref>http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=peter+nordin+robot&search_type=&aq=f</ref>.

During his time at Chalmers, he started another 10 spin-off companies based on his research<ref>http://www.chalmers.se/HyperText/ChalmersMagasin/nr4_2004/artificiell.pdf</ref>. He has a number of patents<ref>http://www.freepatentsonline.com/result.html?query_txt=nordin%20cgps</ref>, all related to genetic programming and evolutionary methods.
From 2008 Peter Nordin is an adjoint Professor at Chalmers in Göteborg, Sweden.

He lives with wife Carina and 6 children outside Gothenburg in Askim.
