Context Free PDA (Push Down Automata)
Context Free PDA (Push Down Automata)
In language induction, we are essentially searching the entire space of D-PDA’s to find a
generalized solution which has learned a language. Genetic Algorithms are effective search
algorithms which do not fall into local minima, unlike hill climbing (Tomita 1982.)
Conventional genetic algorithms, however, are not directly applicable to the problem at hand
because their chromosomes have a constant length and the number of states in the solution D-
PDA is unknown. Genetic Programs may be viewed as Genetic Algorithms with variable-
sized chromosomes
