browser-gp

This is an experimental web app that aims to make it easier to mess around with genetic programming.

Tom Harren and Dan Stelljes initially developed a JavaScript genetic programming library with an AngularJS frontend as a final project for Nic McPhee’s Evolutionary Computation class at UMM. Now the whole thing is being recreated as a broader way to learn about different approaches to evolutionary computation.

Solution types

• TinyGP: A C++ implementation of Riccardo Poli’s tree-based TinyGP.
