In this paper new results are documented regarding the short term evolution of global short term interest rates. Much work has been carried out concerning the evolution of interest rates over long time scales, on the order ...
Designing a suitable objective function is an essential step in successfully applying an evolutionary algorithm to a problem. In this study we apply a grammar-based Genetic Programming algorithm called Grammatical Evolution ...

This paper investigates the effects of early stopping as a
method to counteract overfitting in evolutionary data modelling using
Genetic Programming. Early stopping has been proposed as a method
to avoid model overtraining, ...
