abstract = "This paper demonstrates that FIFTH, a new vector-based
genetic programming (GP) language, can automatically
derive very effective signal processing algorithms
directly from signal data. Using symbol rate estimation
as an example, we compare the performance of a standard
algorithm against an evolved algorithm. The evolved
algorithm uses a novel approach in developing a symbol
transition feature vector and achieves an impressive
97.7% overall accuracy in the defined problem domain,
far exceeding the performance of the standard
algorithm. These results suggest that vector based GP
approaches could be useful in developing more
expressive features for a large class of signal
processing and classification problems.",
