Agentic AI Automates Genetic Programming Configuration

Researchers have developed an agentic AI framework to automate the configuration of parent selection algorithms in genetic programming. This framework utilizes large language model reasoning and retrieval-augmented generation to identify and implement these algorithms. In testing with symbolic regression problems, the strongest configuration, referred to as '5 mini--AR', demonstrated competitive performance, generating established epsilon-lexicase implementations and generally outperforming tournament selection.

    Automating Parent Selection Configuration in Genetic Programming with Agentic AI

    We investigate whether agentic artificial intelligence can automate parts of the process of designing genetic programming systems by introducing an agentic framework that identifies and implements parent selection algorithms using large language model (LLM) reasoning and retrieva…
