This paper presents an algorithm that permits thesearch for dependencies among sets of data (univariateor multivariate time-series, or cross-sectionalobservations). The procedure is modeled after genetictheories and Darwinian concepts, such as naturalselection and survival of the fittest. It permits thediscovery of equations of the data-generating processin symbolic form. The genetic algorithm that isdescribed here uses parts of equations as buildingblocks to breed ever better formulas. Apart fromfurnishing a deeper understanding of the dynamics ofa process, the method also permits global predictionsand forecasts. The algorithm is successfully testedwith artificial and with economic time-series and alsowith cross-sectional data on the performance andsalaries of NBA players during the 94–95 season.
