K2GA: Heuristically Guided Evolution of Bayesian Network Structures from Data
— We present K2GA, an algorithm for learning Bayesian network structures from data. K2GA uses a genetic algorithm to perform stochastic search, while employing a modified versio...

CGP visits the Santa Fe trail: effects of heuristics on GP
GP uses trees to represent chromosomes. The user defines the representation space by defining the set of functions and terminals to label the nodes in the trees, and GP searches t...
