Abstract

This paper presents a new crossover operator for genetic programming. We exploit two concepts of formal methods: Weakest precondition and Craig interpolation, to perform semantically aware crossover. Weakest preconditions are used to locate "faulty" parts of a program and Craig interpolation is utilized to "correct" these ones.
