Multitask genetic programming (MTGP) is one of the primary methods for solving multitask symbolic regression (MTSR), the problem of discovering mathematical expressions for multiple interconnected tasks simultaneously. However, conventional MTGP approaches discard a wealth of valuable knowledge from the population of expressions due to their inherent “winner-take-all” selection criteria. To address this, we introduce MTGP with bidirectional cooperation and consensus-accelerated Shapley analysis
