The dynamic behavior of mutation and crossover is investigated with the Breeder Genetic Algorithm. The main emphasis is on binary functions. The genetic operators are compared nea...
The crossover bias theory for bloat [18] is a recent result which predicts that bloat is caused by the sampling of short, unfit programs. This theory is clear and simple, but it ...

Abstract. Statistical techniques for designing and analysing experiments are used to evaluate the individual and combined effects of genetic programming parameters. Three binary cl...
Abstract. To analyse various properties of the search process of genetic programming it is useful to quantify the distance between two individuals. Using operator-based distance me...

We present a new mechanism for preserving phenotypic behavioural diversity in a Genetic Programming application for hedge fund portfolio optimization, and provide experimental res...
