Riolo Genetic Programming 1996: Proceedings of the First Annual Conference Stanford University, CA, USA MIT Press 123--131 "28--31 " # jul genetic algorithms, genetic programming This paper describes an automated process for designing electrical circuits in which "What You Want Is What You Get" ("WYWIWYG" - pronounced "wow-eee-wig"). 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. http://www.genetic-programming.com/jkpdf/gp1996nielsen.pdf
