  abstract =     "An underlying problem in genetic programming (GP) is
                 how to ensure sufficient useful diversity in the
                 population during search. Having a wide range of
                 diverse (sub)component structures available for
                 recombination and/or mutation is important in
                 preventing premature converge. We propose two new
                 fitness disaggregation approaches that make explicit
                 use of the information in the test cases (i.e., program
                 semantics) to preserve diversity in the population. The
                 first method preserves the best programs which pass
                 each individual test case, the second preserves those
                 which are non-dominated across test cases
                 (multi-objectivisation). We use these in standard GP,
                 and compare them to using standard fitness sharing, and
                 using standard (aggregate) fitness in tournament
                 selection. We also examine the effect of including a
                 simple anti-bloat criterion in the selection mechanism.
                 We find that the non-domination approach, employing
                 anti-bloat, significantly speeds up convergence to the
                 optimum on a range of standard Boolean test problems.
                 Furthermore, its best performance occurs with a
                 considerably smaller population size than typically
                 employed in GP.",
