Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesUsing Background Knowledge and Random Sampling in Genetic Programming: A Case Study in Learning Boolean Parity FunctionsLappoon R. TangThe Boolean even-N-parity function returns T (i.e., true) if an even number of its Boolean arguments for N arguments are T and otherwise returns NIL (i.e., false). Learning Boolean even-N-parity functions has been recognized as a difficult problem for evolutionary computation (such as genetic programming) especially when N is large (e.g., 20+). A number of approaches have been proposed for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 7 · 10 Jul 2023 · 5,489 accessesView PDFCite
