• abstract = "Loop structure is a fundamental flow control in programming languages for repeating certain operations. It is not widely used in Genetic Programming as it introduces extra complexity in the search. However in some circumstances, including a loop structure may enable GP to find better solutions. This study investigates the benefits of loop structures in evolving GP classifiers. Three different loop representations are proposed and compared with other GP methods and a set of traditional classification methods. The results suggest that the proposed loop structures can outperform other methods. Additionally the evolved classifiers can be small and simple to interpret. Further analysis on a few classifiers shows that they indeed have captured genuine characteristics from the data for performing classification.",
