Abstract. We present a new method of Logic-Based Genetic Programming (LBGP). Using the intrinsic mechanism of backtracking in Prolog, we utilize large individual programs with redundant clauses, and apply them to small populations. Our method is validated by the experiments about Symbolic Regression, and XOR problems.
