Genetic Engine
==============

[![Documentation](https://readthedocs.org/projects/geneticengine/badge/?version=latest)](https://geneticengine.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)

A hybrid between strongly-typed (STGP) and grammar-guided genetic programming (GGGP).

About GeneticEngine
-------------------

GeneticEngine is a Genetic Programming framework for single- and multi-objective optimization. GeneticEngine allows the user to provide domain knowledge about the shape of the solution (using type annotations) and by defining the fitness function.
