..., a multigene genetic programming (MGGP) approach is proposed to derive new prediction models for the UBOLs response to temperature loading. Design/methodology/approach MGGP is a promising variant of evolutionary computation capable of developing highly nonlinear explicit models for characterizing complex...

...Hao Wang; Guangming Dong; Jin Chen Purpose The purpose of this paper is building the regression model related to tool wear, and the regression model is used to identify the state of tool wear. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, genetic programming (GP), which is originally used...

...Ying-Ji Chuang; Hsing-Chih Tsai Purpose This paper aims to use a derivative of genetic programming to predict the bond strength of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars in concrete under the effects of design guidelines. In developing bond strength prediction models, this paper prioritized...

... networks (ANN). Design/methodology/approach The present work proposes evolutionary approach of multi-gene genetic programming (MGGP) to formulate the functional relationships between UCS of reinforced soil and four inputs (soil moisture, soil density, fiber content and unreinforced soil strength...
