Usage of Linear Genetic Programming
Create training data
The sample code below shows how to generate data from the "Mexican Hat" regression problem. We can split the data generated into training and testing data:
import com.github.chen0040.gp.utils.CollectionUtils;
List<BasicObservation> data = Tutorials.mexican_hat().stream().map(s -> (BasicObservation)s).collect(Collectors.toList());
CollectionUtils.shuffle(data);
TupleTwo<List<BasicObservation>, List<BasicObservation>> split_data = CollectionUtils.split(data, 0.9);
List<BasicObservation> trainingData = split_data._1();
List<BasicObservation> testingData = split_data._2();
Create and train the LGP
The sample code below shows how the SparkLGP can be created and trained:
import com.github.chen0040.gp.lgp.LGP;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.commons.BasicObservation;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.commons.Observation;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.lgp.gp.Population;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.lgp.program.operators.*;
SparkLGP lgp = new SparkLGP();
lgp.getOperatorSet().addAll(new Plus(), new Minus(), new Divide(), new Multiply(), new Power());
lgp.getOperatorSet().addIfLessThanOperator();
lgp.addConstants(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0);
lgp.setRegisterCount(6); // the number of register here is the number of input dimension of the training data times 3
lgp.setPerObservationCostEvaluator((Function<Tuple2<Program, BasicObservation>, Double>) tuple2 -> {
Program program = tuple2._1();
BasicObservation observation = tuple2._2();
program.execute(observation);
return Math.pow(observation.getOutput(0) - observation.getPredictedOutput(0), 2.0);
});
lgp.setDisplayEvery(2); // display iteration result every 2 iterations
JavaSparkContext context = SparkContextFactory.createSparkContext("testing-1");
Program program = lgp.fit(context.parallelize(trainingData));
System.out.println(program);
The number of registers of a linea program is set by calling LGP.setRegisterCount(...), the number of registers is usually the a multiple of the input dimension of a training data instance. For example if the training data has input (x, y) which is 2 dimension, then the number of registers may be set to 6 = 2 * 3.
The cost per observation evaluator computes the training cost of a 'program' on a particular 'observation' (which is an instance of trainingData).
The last line prints the linear program found by the LGP evolution, a sample of which is shown below:
instruction[1]: <If< r[4] c[0] r[4]>
instruction[2]: <If< r[3] c[3] r[0]>
instruction[3]: <- r[2] r[3] r[2]>
instruction[4]: <* c[7] r[2] r[2]>
instruction[5]: <If< c[2] r[3] r[1]>
instruction[6]: </ r[1] c[4] r[2]>
instruction[7]: <If< r[3] c[7] r[1]>
instruction[8]: <- c[0] r[0] r[0]>
instruction[9]: <If< c[7] r[3] r[4]>
...
Test the program obtained from the LGP evolution
The best program in the LGP population obtained from the training in the above step can then be used for prediction, as shown by the sample code below:
for(Observation observation : testingData) {
program.execute(observation);
double predicted = observation.getPredictedOutput(0);
double actual = observation.getOutput(0);
logger.info("predicted: {}\tactual: {}", predicted, actual);
}
Usage of Tree Genetic Programming
Here we will use the "Mexican Hat" symbolic regression introduced earlier.
Create and train the TreeGP
The sample code below shows how the TreeGP can be created and trained:
import com.github.chen0040.gp.treegp.TreeGP;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.commons.BasicObservation;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.commons.Observation;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.treegp.gp.Population;
import com.github.chen0040.gp.treegp.program.operators.*;
SparkTreeGP tgp = new SparkTreeGP();
tgp.getOperatorSet().addAll(new Plus(), new Minus(), new Divide(), new Multiply(), new Power());
tgp.getOperatorSet().addIfLessThanOperator();
tgp.addConstants(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0);
tgp.setVariableCount(2); //equal to the number of input dimension of the training data
tgp.setPerObservationCostEvaluator(tuple2 -> {
Solution program = tuple2._1();
BasicObservation observation = tuple2._2();
program.execute(observation);
return Math.pow(observation.getOutput(0) - observation.getPredictedOutput(0), 2.0);
});
tgp.setDisplayEvery(2); // display iteration result every 2 iterations
JavaSparkContext context = SparkContextFactory.createSparkContext("testing-1");
Solution program = tgp.fit(context.parallelize(trainingData));
The cost per observation evaluator computes the training cost of a 'program' on a particular 'observation' (which is an instance of trainingData).
The program.mathExpress() call prints the TreeGP program found by the TreeGP evolution, a sample of which is shown below:
Trees[0]: 1.0 - (if(1.0 < if(1.0 < 1.0, if(1.0 < v0, 1.0, 1.0), if(1.0 < (v1 * v0) + (1.0 / 1.0), 1.0 + 1.0, 1.0)), 1.0, v0 ^ 1.0))
Test the program obtained from the TreeGP evolution
The best program in the TreeGP population obtained from the training in the above step can then be used for prediction, as shown by the sample code below:
for(Observation observation : testingData) {
program.execute(observation);
double predicted = observation.getPredictedOutput(0);
double actual = observation.getOutput(0);
logger.info("predicted: {}\tactual: {}", predicted, actual);
}
