Notes

  1. Cf. Veni, vidi, vici (I came; I saw; I conquered) Julius Caesar, 47 BC.

  2. At EuroGP 2000 I did not follow today’s advice and the information about glucose went into the figure’s caption rather than in the figure itself.

  3. At his GECCO 2023 invited keynote Kenneth De Jong said we should be careful to avoid designing our evolutionary computation algorithms with more synchronisation points than necessary.

  4. Since it is known that disruptions caused by mutation or crossover often fail to propagate up deeply nesting programs to impact fitness [47,48,49], another argument for splitting up programs is to ensure each member of the team or ensemble is exposed to the fitness testing environment, whilst each remains relatively shallow.

  5. A miscellaneous collection of GP tools can be found at http://www.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/W.Langdon/homepages.html#6.

  6. Abstract syntax trees are often used by high level language compilers during syntax analysis. ASTs written in XML typically contain many diverse types and strongly typed genetic programming, STGP [87], crossover and mutation are readily implemented with XML [65].
