Learning the neuron functions within a neural network via Genetic Programming: applications to geophysics and hydrogeology

A neural network classifier is sought. Classical neural network neurons are aggregations of a weight multiplied by an input value and then controlled via an activation function. This paper learns everything within the neuron using a variant of genetic programming called gene expression programming....
