Genetic Programming with Memory for Symbolic Regression
Jůza, Tadeáš ; Bidlo, Michal (referee) ; Sekanina, Lukáš (advisor)
The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the possibility of extending genetic programming with memory for solving symbolic regression problems. Furthermore, a set of problems for testing the quality of such solutions is developed. The thesis proposes a practical application of such an extension to reduce the energy consumption of loading weights of convolutional neural networks. Instead of retrieving all the weights of the network from external memory, only a small percentage of the weights is retrieved and the remaining ones are generated using the evolved expression. This method was primarily evaluated on reducing the set of weights of convolutional layers of a small convolutional neural network classifying the MNIST dataset. Furthermore, the possibility of generating weights was also tested on other convolutional neural networks solving more complex classification problems. The proposed method has delivered interesting tradeoffs between the classification accuracy and weight memory size.
