abstract = "There are much research effort in the literature using
genetic programming as an efficient tool for design of
controllers for industrial systems. In this paper,
multi-objective uniform-diversity genetic programming
(MUGP) is used for automated synthesis of both
structure and parameter tuning of optimal controllers
as a many-objective optimisation problem. In the
proposed evolutionary design methodology, each
candidate controller illustrated by a transfer
function, whose optimal structure and parameters,
obtained based on performance optimisation of each
candidate controller. The performance indices of each
controller are treated as separate objective functions,
and thus solved using the multi-objective method of
this work. A two-mass-spring system is considered to
show the efficiency of the proposed method using
performance optimisation of open loop and closed loop
control system characteristics. The results show that
the proposed method is a computationally efficient
framework compared to other methods in the literature
for automatically designing both structure and
parameter tuning of optimal controllers.",
