Abstract

The aim of this research is to develop an adaptive system for designing digital circuits. The investigated system, called Adaptive Genetic Programming (AdGP) contains most of the features required by an adaptive GP algorithm: it can decide the chromosome depth, the population size and the nodes of the GP tree which are the best suitable to provide the desired outputs. We have tested AdGP algorithm by solving some well-known problems in the field of digital circuits. Numerical experiments show that AdGP is able to perform very well on the considered test problems being able to successfully compete with standard GP having manually set parameters.
