The design process uses genetic programming to produce both the topology of the desired circuit and the sizing (numerical values) for all the components of a circuit. Genetic programming successfully evolves both the topology and the sizing for an asymmetric bandpass filter that was described as being difficult-to-design in a leading electrical engineering journal. This evolved circuit is another instance in which a genetically evolved solution to a non- trivial problem is competitive with human performance.}, keywords = {genetic algorithms, genetic programming}, URL = {http://www.genetic-programming.com/jkpdf/gp1996nielsen.pdf}, author = { Koza, John R. and III, Forrest H Bennett and Andre, David and Keane, Martin A.} }
