Grammatical Differential Evolution.
Michael O’Neill, Anthony Brabazon · International Conference on Artificial Intelligence · 2006
This proof of concept study examines the possibility of specifying the construction of programs using Differential Evolution, and represents a new form of grammar-based genetic programming, Grammatical Differential Evolution (GDE). In GDE each individual member of the population represents a specific choice of program construction rules, where these rules are specified using a Backus-Naur Form grammar. The results demonstrate that it is possible to generate programs using the Grammatical Differential technique.
