abstract = "Geometric Semantic Genetic Programming (GSGP) is a
recently introduced form of Genetic Programming (GP),
rooted in a geometric theory of representations, that
searches directly the semantic space of
functions/programs, rather than the space of their
syntactic representations (e.g., trees) as in
traditional GP. Remarkably, the fitness landscape seen
by GSGP is always, for any domain and for any problem,
unimodal with a linear slope by construction. This has
two important consequences: (i) it makes the search for
the optimum much easier than for traditional GP; (ii)
it opens the way to analyse theoretically in a easy
manner the optimisation time of GSGP in a general
setting. The run time analysis of GP has been very hard
to tackle, and only simplified forms of GP on specific,
unrealistic problems have been studied so far. We
present a runtime analysis of GSGP with various types
of mutations on the class of all Boolean functions.",
