  abstract =     "This paper presents a generalisation of the
                 graph-based genetic programming (GP) technique known as
                 Cartesian genetic programming (CGP). We have extended
                 CGP by using automatic module acquisition, evolution,
                 and reuse. To benchmark the new technique, we have
                 tested it on: various digital circuit problems, two
                 symbolic regression problems, the lawnmower problem,
                 and the hierarchical if-and-only-if problem. The
                 results show the new modular method evolves solutions
                 quicker than the original nonmodular method, and the
                 speedup is more pronounced on larger problems. Also,
                 the new modular method performs favourably when
                 compared with other GP methods. Analysis of the evolved
                 modules shows they often produce recognisable
                 functions. Prospects for further improvements to the
                 method are discussed.",
