A classification task is a test-based problem, with examples corresponding to tests. A correct classification is equivalent to passing a test, while incorrect to failing it. This applies also to classifying pixels in an image, viz. image segmentation. A natural performance indicator in such a setting is the accuracy of classification, i.e., the fraction of passed tests. When solving a classification tasks with genetic programming, it is thus common to employ this indicator as a fitness function. However, recent developments in GP as well as some earlier work suggest that the quality of evolved solutions may benefit from using other search drivers to guide the traversal of the space of programs. In this study, we systematically verify the usefulness of selected alternative search drivers in the problem of detection of blood vessels in ophthalmology imaging.
