abstract = "Nowadays, intelligent connectionist systems such as
artificial neural networks have been proved very
powerful in a wide area of applications. Consequently,
the ability to interpret their structure was always a
desirable feature for experts. In this field, the
neural logic networks (NLN) by their definition are
able to represent complex human logic and provide
knowledge discovery. However, under contemporary
methodologies, the training of these networks may often
result in non-comprehensible or poorly designed
structures. we propose an evolutionary system that uses
current advances in genetic programming that overcome
these drawbacks and produces neural logic networks that
can be arbitrarily connected and are easily
interpretable into expert rules. To accomplish this
task, we guide the genetic programming process using a
context-free grammar and we encode indirectly the
neural logic networks into the genetic programming
individuals. We test the proposed system in two
problems of medical diagnosis. Our results are examined
both in terms of the solution interpretability that can
lead in knowledge discovery, and in terms of the
achieved accuracy. We draw conclusions about the
effectiveness of the system and we propose further
research directions.",
