Self-modifying cartesian genetic programming
In nature, systems with enormous numbers of components (i.e. cells) are evolved from a relatively small genotype. It has not yet been demonstrated that artificial evolution is su...

An empirical investigation of how and why neutrality affects evolutionary search
The effects of neutrality on evolutionary search have been considered in a number of interesting studies, the results of which, however, have been contradictory. Some researchers ...

A Study of the Role of Single Node Mutation in Genetic Programming
In this paper we examine the effects of single node mutations on trees evolved via genetic programming. The results show that neutral mutations are less likely for nodes nearer th...

A multi-chromosome approach to standard and embedded cartesian genetic programming
Embedded Cartesian Genetic Programming (ECGP) is an extension of Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) that can automatically acquire, evolve and re-use partial solutions in the for...

Using Computer Simulation to Understand Mutation Accumulation Dynamics and Genetic Load
Long-standing theoretical concerns about mutation accumulation within the human population can now be addressed with numerical simulation. We apply a biologically realistic forward...
