  abstract =     "In recent years, program evolution algorithms based on
                 the estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) have
                 been proposed to improve search ability of genetic
                 programming (GP) and to overcome GP-hard problems. One
                 such method is the probabilistic prototype tree (PPT)
                 based algorithm. The PPT based method explores the
                 optimal tree structure by using the full tree whose
                 number of child nodes is maximum among possible trees.
                 This algorithm, however, suffers from problems arising
                 from function nodes having different number of child
                 nodes. These function nodes cause intron nodes, which
                 do not affect the fitness function. Moreover, the
                 function nodes having many child nodes increase the
                 search space and the number of samples necessary for
                 properly constructing the probabilistic model. In order
                 to solve this problem, we propose binary encoding for
                 PPT. Here, we convert each function node to a subtree
                 of binary nodes where the converted tree is correct in
                 grammar. Our method reduces ineffectual search space,
                 and the binary encoded tree is able to express the same
                 tree structures as the original method. The
                 effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated
                 through the use of two computational experiments.",
