Original Abstract
Several papers have shown that symbolic regression is suitable for data analysis and prediction in finance markets. The Grammatical Evolution (GE) has been successfully applied in solvingvarious tasks including symbolic regression. However, performance of this method can limit the areaof possible applications. This paper deals with utilizing mainstream graphics processing unit (GPU)for acceleration of GE solving symbolic regression. With respect to various mentioned constrains,such as PCI-Express and main memory bandwidth bottleneck, we have designed effective mappingof the algorithm to the CUDA framework. Results indicate that for larger number of regression pointscan our algorithm run 636 or 39 times faster than GEVA library routine or a sequential C code, respectively. As a result, the ordinary GPU, if used properly, can offer interesting performance boostfor solution the symbolic regression by the GE.
