  • Abstract
    Genetic programming (GP) plays the primary role in the discovery of programs through evolving the program´s set of parse trees. We present a new technique for constructing programs through ant colony optimization (ACO) using the tree adjunct grammar (TAG) formalism. We call the method AntTAG and we show that the results are very promising
