Minimalist Genetic Programming offers new approach to program induction

Researchers have introduced Minimalist Genetic Programming (MGP), a novel approach to program induction inspired by linguistic minimalism. Unlike traditional genetic programming that relies on evolutionary search, MGP utilizes a syntactic derivation process based on the MERGE operator. This method has demonstrated success in discovering core symbolic expression components and incrementally building them, outperforming standard GP on challenging symbolic regression tasks prone to bloat.

    Minimalist Genetic Programming

    arXiv:2606.10237v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Genetic programming (GP) is based on two important insights. First, that any learning task can fundamentally be posed as a program induction problem, where the goal is to construct a symbolic hierarchical model that is expressed as …
