Genetic Programming Theory and Practice VII

Genetic programming has emerged as an important computational methodology for solving complex problems in a diversity of disciplines. In an effort to foster collaborations and facilitate the exchange of ideas and information related to the rapidly advancing field of Genetic Programming, the annual Genetic Programming Theory and Practice Workshop was organized by the University of Michigan’s Center for the Study of Complex Systems to provide a forum for both those who develop computational theory and those that practice the art of computation.


Genetic Programming Theory and Practice VII presents the results of this workshop, contributed by the foremost international researchers and practitioners in the GP arena. Contributions examine the similarities and differences between theoretical and empirical results on real-world problems, and explore the synergy between theory and practice, producing a comprehensive view of the state of the art in GP application. Application areas include chemical process control, circuit design, financial data mining and bio-informatics, to name a few.
