- abstract = "Recently there has been considerable interest in determining whether, and how much, evolutionary pressure for genetic robustness influences evolutionary processes. we attempt to show that this evolutionary pressure does have a significant effect in typical genetic programming problems. Specifically we demonstrate that in a standard genetic programming implementation to solve a symbolic regression problem, pressure for genetic robustness forces the population away from high fitness, but less robust, solutions in favor of solutions with lower fitness, but higher genetic robustness.",
