Summary
Genetic programming (GP) is a systematic, domain-independent methodfor getting computers to solve problems automatically starting from ahigh-level statement of what needs to be done. Using ideas fromnatural evolution, GP starts from an ooze of random computer programs,and progressively refines them through processes of mutation andsexual recombination, until high-fitness solutions emerge. All thiswithout the user having to know or specify the form or structure ofsolutions in advance. GP has generated a plethora of human-competitiveresults and applications, including novel scientific discoveries andpatentable inventions.This unique overview of this exciting technique is written by three ofthe most active scientists in GP.See www.gp-field-guide.org.uk for more information on the book.
