Alternative Bloat Control Methods
Abstract. Bloat control is an important aspect of evolutionary computation methods, such as genetic programming, which must deal with genomes of arbitrary size. We introduce three ...

A Comparison of Bloat Control Methods for Genetic Programming
Genetic programming has highlighted the problem of bloat, the uncontrolled growth of the average size of an individual in the population. The most common approach to dealing with ...

It is Not the Length That Matters, It is How You Control It
—The length of test cases is a little investigated topic in search-based test generation for object oriented software, where test cases are sequences of method calls. While intui...

Exploiting disruption aversion to control code bloat
The authors employ multiple crossovers as a novel natural extension to crossovers as a mixing operator. They use this as a framework to explore the ideas of code growth. Empirical...

Size-based tournaments for node selection
In genetic programming, the reproductive operators of crossover and mutation both require the selection of nodes from the reproducing individuals. Both unbiased random selection a...
