Abstract

The aim of genetic programming is to evolve programs or functions (symbolic regression) thanks to artificial evolution. This technique is now mature and can routinely yield results on par with (or even better than) human intelligence. This chapter sums up the basics of genetic programming and outlines the main subtleties one should be aware of in order to obtain good results.
