Genetic Programming

Automatic Quantum Computer Programming provides an introduction to quantum computing for non-physicists, as well as an introduction to genetic programming for non-computer-scientists. The book explores several ways in which genetic programming can support automatic quantum computer programming and presents detailed descriptions of specific techniques, along with several examples of their human-competitive performance on specific problems. Source code for the author’s QGAME quantum computer simulator is included as an appendix, and pointers to additional online resources furnish the reader with an array of tools for automatic quantum computer programming.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 25th European Conference on Genetic Programming, EuroGP 2022, held as part of Evo*2021, as Virtual Event, in April 2022, co-located with the Evo*2022 events, EvoCOP, EvoMUSART, and EvoApplications. The 12 revised full papers and 7 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. The wide range of topics in this volume reflects the current state of research in the field. The collection of papers cover topics including developing new operators for variants of GP algorithms, as well as exploring GP applications to the optimization of machine learning methods and the evolution of complex combinational logic circuits.

Genetic Programming Theory and Practice III provides both researchers and industry professionals with the most recent developments in GP theory and practice by exploring the emerging interaction between theory and practice in the cutting-edge, machine learning method of Genetic Programming (GP). The contributions developed from a third workshop at the University of Michigan's Center for the Study of Complex Systems, where leading international genetic programming theorists from major universities and active practitioners from leading industries and businesses meet to examine and challenge how GP theory informs practice and how GP practice impacts GP theory. Applications are from a wide range of domains, including chemical process control, informatics, and circuit design, to name a few.

Genetic Programming Theory and Practice III explores the emerging interaction between theory and practice in the cutting-edge, machine learning method of Genetic Programming (GP). This contributed volume was developed from the third workshop at the University of Michigan’s Center for the Study of Complex Systems to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information related to this rapidly advancing field. The text provides a cohesive view of the issues facing both practitioners and theoreticians and examines the synergy between GP theory and application.
