Grammatical Evolution by Grammatical Evolution: The Evolution of Grammar and Genetic Code

摘要

This study examines the possibility of evolving the grammar that Grammatical Evolution uses to specify the construction of a syntactically correct solution. As the grammar dictates the space of symbols that can be used in a solution, its evolution represents the evolution of the genetic code itself. Results provide evidence to show that the co-evolution of grammar and genetic code with a solution using grammatical evolution is a viable approach.
