RESUMO

Symbolic regression, which is in principal the handling of mathematical expressions for finding a function that describes a data set, was until recently carried out exclusively by humans. But now, several computational techniques of symbolic regression automatization have appeared. One of these techniques is genetic programming, a subarea of evolutive computing that uses an analogy to Darwinâs evolutionary theory and some ideas from the Genetics field to develop a group of computer programs in a search for solutions to computational tasks. This work aims to test the symbolic regression capabilities of genetic programming with the objective of verifying its viability as a tool for a specific geophysical research. This research concerns phenomena that occurs in the ionosphere, the region of earthâs atmosphere ionized by the action of solar rays, that play a fundamental role in telecommunications. In the course of this trial, we used two implementations of traditional genetic programming and one implementation of a variant, named gene expression programming. Problems like the one under study demand a lot of processor time and are memory consuming, therefore, the work culminates with a distributed implementation of genetic programming with the objective of accelerating the modeling process.
