Abstract

In this paper we propose a new genetic programming based approach for prototype generation in Pattern Recognition problems. Prototypes consist of mathematical expressions and are encoded as derivation trees. The devised system is able to cope with classification problems in which the number of prototypes is not a priori known. The approach has been tested on several problems and the results compared with those obtained by other genetic programming based approaches previously proposed.
