• abstract = "Hillar and Sommer recently published a comment \cite{Hillar:2009:eureqa} on the validity of the fitness criterion used to search for free-form natural laws in experimental data \cite{Science09:Schmidt}. The comment presents experimental and theoretical arguments that the particular fitness criterion evaluates to zero and assert that the algorithm described in the paper cannot accomplish the stated goals. They further propose an alternative metric which they claim to be better suited.",
