1.1 - Functional Redesign by Genetic Identification Authors: Lamine Ngom, Claude Baron and Jean-Claude Geffroy Univ/Comp: insa-tlse, France Presenter: Claude Baron - baron@dge.insa-tlse.fr ******** Abstract: This paper shows how differential identification may help to solve functional redesign issues at FSM level. We present a new approach to different differential identification using genetic algorithms. This approach is interesting for the analysis of adaptive systems because the process is faster than the classical tree exploration algorithms. Moreover, it allows finding approximate solutions when formal solutions are impossible to obtain. Keywords. Differential Identification, Genetic Algorithm, Functional Redesign.
