Automatically designing more general mutation operators of evolutionary programming for groups of function classes using a hyper-heuristic

In this study we use Genetic Programming (GP) as an offline hyper-heuristic to evolve a mutation operator for Evolutionary Programming. This is done using the Gaussian and uniform distributions as the terminal set, and arithmetic operators as the function set. The mutation operators are automaticall...
