This is the second part in a video series on genetic programming(GP). I have created a genetic programming application in C++ in which a little bug is learning to cover more and more space on the screen as fast as possible. Here is the link to the first video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyaJYQZmwPo

  • How do you initialize the programs for the population of bugs

  • Many thanks Carl - It would be great to view the source code for your GP vacuum cleaner

  • @cognimus yes you can do usefull stuff in anyway language , but there is some problems that the others are are slower in some cases [ depends on software type ,code quality , and optimization] but i still think that all the language are usefull in there position.

  • just my advice to anyone wanting to do GAs or genetic programming... try using lisp... much simpler and especially in genetic programming its well suited to the task! It's also very simple to learn!

  • "almost everyone who writes useful stuff writes it in c or c++"

    Maybe in 1985... Today people have been known to "do useful stuff" with Java, Python. Ruby, Lisp (as well as before), C##, Perl, Haskell, Smalltalk, and many others.

    In fact, Genetic Programming was developed by John Koza who exclusively uses Lisp for this technique.

  • Awesome videos, man. As someone trying to break into this field, your videos have helped me to grasp concepts that other books and resources have left me scratching my head over. Keep up the good work. Thanks!

  • Yes, true, any one will do. The best would be c++ which you can probably find everything you need to know about it on the internet. You need a compiler to turn it into an executable. My preference would be g++ as part of the GCC. If you want a funky GUI you can use GTK or Glade. Almost everyone who writes useful stuff writes it in c or c++, so for instance the guy in the video wanted an XML parser. He could have used a microsoft one or an open source one, rather than having to write his own.

  • Well... any programming language. These are just explanations and ideas or approaches to actually designing programs.

  • so ,what would i need to program this?

    any advice?

  • Nicely done dude! It would be better if you print the tracks of the bugs so you can see the progression in covering the screen. Again, nicely done!
