Repeated Sequences in Linear GP Genomes
WB Langdon, Wolfgang Banzhaf · 2004
Abstract. Biological chromosomes are replete with repetitive sequences, microsatellites, SSR tracts, ALU, etc. in their DNA base sequences. We discover hierarchical repeating sequences (building blocks?) are evolved by genetic programming in linear time series prediction programs. “DNA whose sequence is not maintained by selection will develop periodicities as a result of random crossover ” George P Smith, Science, 1976. 1
