Genetic Neutrality in Na(i)ve Gene Expression Programming

摘要

Gene expression programming (GEP) is a genotype-phenotype system with non-coding regions in genome where possible neutral mutations would be accumulated. In this paper, a novel concept named Na(i)ve gene expression programming (NGEP) is introduced. The main contributions include: (a) proposing a novel algorithm named NGEP, which decoding method based on the complete tree, (b) discussing the role of genetic neutrality in GEP and NGEP, and (c) performing experiments to show that NGEP is faster than traditional GEP, and the success rate of NGEP is higher than that in traditional GEP.
