Parsimony pressure, the explicit penalization of larger programs, has been increasingly used as a means of controlling code growth in genetic programming. However, in many cases p...
The parsimony pressure method is perhaps the simplest and most frequently used method to control bloat in genetic programming. In this paper we first reconsider the size evolutio...
This research examines the behavior of inoperative code (introns) in the evolution of genetically robust solutions. Genetically robust solutions are solutions that are less likely...
