  abstract =     "This paper proposes several techniques for avoiding
                 over fitting in the genetic programming (GP) of
                 polynomials. The model specification flexibility is
                 increased by: (1) a polynomial block reformulation,
                 which reduces the statistical bias, and, (2) complexity
                 tuning using local ridge regression and regularised
                 weight subset selection, which reduce the statistical
                 variance. Another contribution is the designed fitness
                 function for search navigation towards highly
                 predictive models. Experimental results on time-series
                 forecasting show that these techniques help GP to find
                 accurate, less complex and better forecasting
                 polynomials than traditional Koza-style GP (J.R. Koza,
                 1992) and the previous Stroganoff system (H. Iba et
                 al., 1994, 2001)",
