Research explores recombination operators for improved Cartesian Genetic Programming

A new research paper explores improvements in Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) by examining recombination-based operators. Traditionally, CGP has relied heavily on mutation, with recombination approaches often overlooked due to perceived performance limitations. This study investigates two specific recombination operators, subgraph crossover and discrete phenotypic recombination, using the SRBench platform for symbolic regression. The findings indicate that through hyperparameter optimization, recombination-based CGP can achieve enhanced performance. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient evolutionary algorithms for symbolic regression tasks.
