- abstract = "Premature convergence is a serious problem that plagues genetic programming, stifling its search performance. Several genetic diversity maintenance techniques have been proposed for combating premature convergence and improving search efficiency in genetic programming. Recent research has shown that while genetic diversity is important, focusing directly on sustaining behavioural diversity may be more beneficial. These two related areas have received a lot of attention, yet they have often been developed independently. We investigated the feasibility of hybrid genetic and behavioral diversity techniques on a suite of problems.",
