Genetic Programming Approach for Classification Problem using GPU

Genetic programming (GP) is a machine learning technique that is based on the evolution of computer programs using a genetic algorithm. Genetic programming have proven to be a good technique for solving data set classification problems but at high computational cost. The objectives of this research is to accelerate the execution of the classification algorithms by proposing a general model of execution in GPU of the adjustment function of the individuals of the population. The computation times of each of the phases of the evolutionary process and the operation of the model of parallel programming in GPU were studied. Genetic programming is interesting to parallelize from the perspective of evolving a population of individuals in parallel
