abstract = "Numerous models of modern and ancient urban landscapes
have been proposed. While is of interest to classify
examples of early urban centres, it is even more
interesting to model their origins. Since these
emergent centers can be viewed not only as adaptations
to their social and biological environments, but also
as a source of further change. Thus, the meaning or
semantics of an emergent centre reflects the processes
by which it was formed. In the study of one ancient
centre, Monte Alban, we have used data mining
techniques to extract a large number of decision trees
describing its settlement over time. Each decision tree
specifies the values for selected attributes that can
predict settlement activity in the terraces that
comprise the site. However, not all terraces with those
properties are occupied in the same way. This can
result from economic or social reasons. Also, the
variables employed do not always have the semantics
needed to make sense of the distinction between
occupied and unoccupied terraces. In this paper we
focus on the latter reason. Here, GP and CA are used to
add semantics to rules to make them more understandable
to experts in the area. Future work will examine how GP
can be used to integrate social and economic
constraints in with the basic decision tree rules.",
