- abstract = "This paper presents a new crossover operator for genetic programming -- dominance crossover. Dominance crossover is similar to the use of dominance in nature. In nature, dominance is used as a genotype to phenotype mapping when an organism carries pairs (or more than one) chromosome, but here we use dominance on a haploid structure. The haploid form contains all the information relevant to the problem, and is the structure that is widely used in evolutionary algorithms. Dominance crossover is used as a way of retaining and promoting successful genes (those which increased the individual's fitness in the current generation) into the next generation. Current crossover operators fail to exploit knowledge acquired in previous generations and rely highly on selection pressures. Dominance crossover in theory allows this exploitation to occur during crossover but we highlight a problem with the application of dominance crossover with genetic programming.",
