Basically the expression is parsed into a tree structure, and then subjected to mutations, or a form of crossover by substituting entire branches of the tree. An equivalent implementation can be done by using text oriented regular expression processing techniques. The resulting phenotype is an image computed pixel by pixel by evaluating each expression substituting the specific (x,y) coordinate. | Basically the expression is parsed into a tree structure, and then subjected to mutations, or a form of crossover by substituting entire branches of the tree.

* Image processing or video processing can be done by calculating pixel values as a function of (x,y,i,t) where i is the value of the image channel and t is time. | * Image processing or video processing can be done by calculating pixel values as a function of (x,y,i,t) where i is the value of the image channel and t is time. | ||
| + | Worth noting in this realm is the NEvAr system that automates the fitness function by using (more or less) the ratio of two complexity measures, compressibility via JPEG versus compressibility via fractal methods. A paper documenting NEvAr can be found [https://estudogeral.sib.uc.pt/bitstream/10316/7641/1/obra.pdf here.] | ||
