  ABSTRACT: The present study aims at improving the ability of the canonical genetic programming algorithm to solve problems, and describes an improved genetic programming (IGP). The proposed method can be described as follows: the first inves-tigates initializing population, the second investigates reproduction operator, the third investigates crossover operator, and the fourth investigates mutation operation. The IGP is examined in two domains and the results suggest that the IGP is more effective and more efficient than the canonical one applied in different domains.
