Evolutionary computation techniques can solve search problems using simulated evolution based on the ‘survival of the fittest’. Recently, the genetic programming (GP) which evolves computer programs using the genetic algorithm was introduced. In this paper, the genetic programming technique is used in order to design a rule based controller consisting of condition-action rules for an unknown system. No a priori knowledge about the structure of the controller is needed. Representation of a solution, functions and terminals in GP are analyzed, and a method of constructing a fuzzy logic controller using the obtained rule based controller is described. A simulation example using a nonlinear system shows the validity and efficiency of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that realizes cooperative behavior by construction of autonomous mobile robot system. Each robot is able to sense other robots and obstacles, and it has the rule of behavior to achieve the goal of the system. In this paper, to improve performance of the whole system, we use Genetic Programming based on Natural Selection. Genetic Programming's chromosome is a program of tree structure and it's major operators are crossover and mutation. We verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme from the several examples.

A rule based controller is constructed for multiple robots accomplishing a given task in unknown environments by using genetic programming. The example task is playing a simplified soccer game, and the controller for robots that governs emergent cooperative behavior is successfully found using the proposed procedure A neural network controller constructed using the rule based controller is shown to be applicable in a more complex environment.

As a new approach to the diagnosis of cancers, bioinformatics attracts great interest these days. Machine teaming techniques have produced valuable results, but the field of medicine requires not only highly accurate classifiers but also the effective analysis and interpretation of them. Since gene expression data in bioinformatics consist of tens of thousands of features, it is nearly impossible to represent their relations directly. In this paper, we propose a method composed of a feature selection method and genetic programming. Rank-based feature selection is adopted to select useful features and genetic programming based arithmetic operators is used to generate classification rules with features selected. Experimental results on Lymphoma cancer dataset, in which the proposed method obtained 96.6% test accuracy as well as useful classification rules, have shown the validity of the proposed method.

A rule was developed to constrain the annual rate of inbreeding to a predefined value in a population with different lifetimes between sires and dams, and to maximize the selection response over generations. This rule considers that the animals in a population should be divided into sex-age classes based on the theory of gene flow, and restricts the increase of average inbreeding coefficient for new offspring by limiting the increase of the mean additive genetic relationship for parents selected. The optimization problem of this rule was formulated as a quadratic programming problem. Inputs for the rule were the BLUP estimated breeding values, the additive genetic relationship matrix of all animals, and the long-term contributions of sex-age classes. Outputs were optimal number and contributions of selected animals. In addition, this rule was combined with the optimization of emphasis given to QTL, and further increased the genetic gain over the planning horizon. Stochastic simulations of closed nucleus schemes for pigs were used to investigate the potential advantages obtained from this rule by combining the standard QTL selection, optimal QTL selection and conventional BLUP selection. Results showed that the predefined rates of inbreeding were actually achieved by this rule in three selection strategies. The rule obtained up to 9.23% extra genetic gain over truncation selection at the same rates of inbreeding. The combination of the extended rule and the optimization of emphasis given to QTL allowed substantial increases in selection response at a fixed annual rate of inbreeding, and solved substantially the conflict between short-term and long-term selection response in QTL-assisted selection schemes.

The necessity for appropriate management of water resources infrastructures such as reservoirs, levees, and dikes is increasing due to unexpected hydro-climate irregularities and rising water demands. To meet this need, past studies have focused on advancing theoretical optimization algorithms such as nonlinear programming, dynamic programming (DP), and genetic programming. Yet, the optimally derived theoretical solutions are limited to be directly implemented in making release decisions in the real-world systems for a variety of reasons. This study first aims to comparatively analyze the two prominent optimization methods, DP and evolutionary multi-objective direct policy search (EMODPS), under historical inflow series using K-fold cross validation. A total of six optimization models are formed each with a specific formulation. Then, one of the optimization models was coupled with the actual zone-based hedging rule that has been adopted in practice. The proposed methodology was applied to Boryeong Dam located in South Korea with conflicting objectives between supply and demand. As a result, the EMODPS models demonstrated a better performance than the DP models in terms of proximity to the ideal. Moreover, the incorporation of the real-world policy with the optimal solutions improved in all indices in terms of the supply side, while widening the range of the trade-off between frequency and magnitude measured in the sides of demand. The results from this study once again highlight the necessity of closing the gap between the theoretical solutions with the real-world implementable policies.
