I'm interesting in evolutionary algorithms. I have tested genetic algorithms with R but has someone tried with genetic programming? Do you know, if there are code somewhere written in R.
I'm not aware of anything on CRAN for genetic programming in particular, although there is some work being done on the problem. In particular, have a look at the RGP package that is still in development.
Otherwise, have a look at the RFreak package, which is a wrapper for the "Free Evolutionary Algorithm Kit".
You might want to have a look at genalg, at GA and at galgo
There is a new package available:
gramEvol: Grammatical Evolution for R
A native R implementation of grammatical evolution (GE). GE
facilitates the discovery of programs that can achieve a desired goal.
This is done by performing an evolutionary optimisation over a
population of R expressions generated via a user-defined context-free
grammar (CFG) and cost function.
You can find the vignette here:
