  abstract =     "To investigate the fundamental causes of bloat, six
                 artificial random binary tree search spaces are
                 presented. Fitness is given by program syntax (the
                 genetic programming genotype). GP populations are
                 evolved on both random problems and problems with
                 ``building blocks''. These are compared to problems
                 with explicit ineffective code (introns, junk code,
                 inviable code). Our results suggest the entropy random
                 walk explanation of bloat remains viable. The hard
                 building block problem might be used in further
                 studies, e.g. of standard subtree crossover.",
