Our results show that a set of effective models can be developed with this approach that can either be used directly or further refined using a modeller's domain knowledge. Such an approach can greatly reduce the time taken to develop new models, enabling a modeller to focus on the subtler modelling aspects of the problem domain.

It is based on a HyperNEAT, which is a well-established evolutionary method employing indirect encoding of artificial neural networks. Indirect encoding in HyperNEAT is realized via special function called Compositional and Pattern Producing Network (CPPN), able to describe a neural network of arbitrary size. CPPNs are represented by network structures, which are evolved by means of a slightly modified version of another, well-known algorithm NEAT (NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies). HyperGP is a variant of HyperNEAT, where the CPPNs are optimized by Genetic Programming (GP). Published results reported promising improvement in the speed of convergence. Our approach further extends HyperGP by using fitness sharing to promote a diversity of a population. Here, we thoroughly compare all three algorithms on six different tasks. Fitness sharing demands a definition of a tree distance measure. Among other five, we propose a generalized distance measure which, in conjunction with HyperGPEFS, significantly outperforms HyperNEAT and HyperGP on all, but one testing problems. Although this paper focuses on indirect encoding, the proposed distance measures are generally applicable.}, notes = {Also known as \cite{2330241} GECCO-2012 A joint meeting of the twenty first international conference on genetic algorithms (ICGA-2012) and the seventeenth annual genetic programming conference (GP-2012)}, } @inproceedings{Fernandez:2012:GECCO, author = {Jose David Fern\'{a}ndez and Francisco Vico and R\'{e}ne Doursat}, title = {Complex and diverse morphologies can develop from a minimal genomic model}, booktitle = {GECCO '12: Proceedings of the fourteenth international conference on Genetic and evolutionary computation conference}, year = {2012}, editor = {Terry Soule and Anne Auger and Jason Moore and David Pelta and Christine Solnon and Mike Preuss and Alan Dorin and Yew-Soon Ong and Christian Blum and Dario Landa Silva and Frank Neumann and Tina Yu and Aniko Ekart and Wil Browne and Tim Kovacs and Man-Leung Wong and Clara Pizzuti and Jon Rowe and Tobias Friedrich and Giovanni Squillero and Nicolas Bredeche and Stephen Smith and Alison Motsinger-Rei and Jose Lozano and Martin Pelikan and Silja Meyer-Nienber and Christian Igel and Greg Hornby and Rene Doursat and Steve Gustafson and Gustavo Olague and Shin Yoo and John Clark and Gabriela Ochoa and Gisele Pappa and Fernando Lobo and Daniel Tauritz and Jurgen Branke and Kalyanmoy Deb}, isbn13 = {978-1-4503-1177-9}, pages = {553--560}, keywords = {generative and developmental systems}, month = {7-11 July}, organisation = {SIGEVO}, address = {Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA}, doi = {doi:10.1145/2330163.2330242}, publisher = {ACM}, publisher_address = {New York, NY, USA}, abstract = {While development plays a critical role in the emergence of diversity, its mechanical and chemical actions are considered to be inextricably correlated with genetic control.

Groundbreaking work in genetics, medicine, epidemiology, neuroscience, telecommunications, social science and drug discovery, to name some examples, have directly resulted. Because the graph models are human made (a very time consuming process) using a small subset of example graphs, they often exhibit inaccuracies when used to model similar structures.

Even if the results are encouraging, to make Evolutionary Reaction Systems an established evolutionary algorithm, an in depth analysis of the effect of its parameters on the search process is needed, with particular focus on those parameters that are typical of Evolutionary Reaction Systems and do not have a counterpart in traditional evolutionary algorithms. Here we address this problem for the first time. The results we present show that one particular parameter, between the ones tested, has a great influence on the performances of Evolutionary Reaction Systems, and thus its setting deserves practitioners' particular attention: the number of symbols used to represent the reactions that compose the system.

These techniques involve selecting an individualised boundary threshold in order to reduce implicit bias that may be introduced through employing arbitrarily chosen values. Individuals that can chose their own boundaries and the manner in which they are applied, are freed from having to learn to force their outputs into a particular range or polarity and can instead concentrate their efforts on seeking a problem solution. Our investigation suggests that while a particular boundary selection method may deliver better performance for a given problem, no single method performs best on all problems studied. We propose a new flexible combined technique which gives near optimal performance across each of the tasks undertaken.

This system used a confusion-matrix to direct learning to hard to classify classes, but due to its reinforcement learning nature was required to estimate the ground truth.

However, results on the 26 class NIST character recognition task show that the UCS-based scales better as it does not require the complete mapping.

In general, features based on a small area are used to suppress noise and texture. However, there is very little guidance in the literature on how to select the area size. In this paper, we employ Genetic Programming (GP) to evolve edge detectors via automatically searching for features based on flexible blocks rather than dividing a fixed window into small areas based on different directions. Experimental results for natural images show that using blocks to extract features obtains better performance than using single pixels only to construct detectors, and that GP can successfully choose the block size for extracting features.}, notes = {Also known as \cite{2330282} GECCO-2012 A joint meeting of the twenty first international conference on genetic algorithms (ICGA-2012) and the seventeenth annual genetic programming conference (GP-2012)}, } @inproceedings{Iqbal:2012:GECCO, author = {Muhammad Iqbal and Will N.

In order to find the optimal constant coefficients locally on the fixed function structure, the Method of Least Square (MLS) has been embedded into the GEP evolutionary process. We tested pGEP using a broad problem set with a varying number of instances. In the performance experiment, the GPU-based GEP, when compared with the traditional GEP version, increased speeds by approximately 250 times.

Our results advance the body of computational complexity analyses of genetic programming, indicate the importance of mutation in genetic programming, and reveal new insights into the behavior of mutation-based genetic programming algorithms.}, notes = {Also known as \cite{2330348} GECCO-2012 A joint meeting of the twenty first international conference on genetic algorithms (ICGA-2012) and the seventeenth annual genetic programming conference (GP-2012)}, } @inproceedings{Oliveto:2012:GECCO, author = {Pietro S.
