  Abstract
  This paper proposes a multi-objective genetic programming (MOGP) for automatic construction of feature extraction programs (FEPs). The proposed method is modified from a well known non-dominated sorting evolutionary algorithm, i.e., NSGA-II. The key differences of the method are related with redundancies in program representation. We apply redundancy regulations in three main processes of the MOGP, i.e., population truncation, sampling, and offspring generation, to improve population diversity the MOGP. Experimental results exhibit that the proposed MOGP based FEPs construction system provides obviously better performance than the original non-dominated sorting approach.
