Beneficial Aspects of Neutrality in GP

Abstract
We propose a new approach, called Multiple Outputs in
a Single Tree (MOST), to Genetic Programming. The idea
of this approach is to specify explicitly Neutrality
and study how this improves the evolutionary process.
For this sake, we have used several evolvable hardware
problems of different complexity taken from the
literature. Our results indicate that our approach has
a better overall performance in terms of consistency to
reach feasible solutions
