abstract = "Population-based evolutionary algorithms continue to
play an important role in artificially intelligent
systems, but can not always easily use parallel
computation. We have combined a geometric (any-space)
particle swarm optimisation algorithm with use of
Ferreira Karva language of gene expression programming
to produce a hybrid that can accelerate the genetic
operators and which can rapidly attain a good solution.
We show how Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) can be
exploited for this. While the geometric particle swarm
optimiser is not markedly faster that genetic
programming, we show it does attain good solutions
faster, which is important for the problems discussed
when the fitness function is inordinately expensive to
compute.",
