Abstract
Cartesian Genetic Programining (CGP) has successfully been applied to the evolution of simple image processing filters and implemented in intrinsic evolvable hardware by the authors. However, conventional CGP exhibits the undesirable characteristic of positional dependence in which the specific location of genes within the chromosome has a direct or indirect influence on the phenotype. An implicit context representation of CGP (IRCGP) has been implemented by the authors which is positionally independent and outperforms conventional CGP in this application. This paper describes the additional benefits of IRCGP when considering alternative geometries for the hardware components. Results presented show that smaller hardware arrays under IRCGP are more robust and outperform equivalent arrays implemented in conventional CGP.
