Abstract

This paper compares an asynchronous evaluation based GP with a synchronous evaluation based GP to investigate the evolution ability of an asynchronous evaluation on the GP domain. As an asynchronous evaluation based GP, this paper focuses on Tierra-based Asynchronous GP we have proposed, which is based on a biological evolution simulator, Tierra. The intensive experiment compares TAGP with simple GP by applying them to a symbolic regression problem, and it is revealed that an asynchronous evaluation based GP has better evolution ability than a synchronous one.
