Abstract

See full text

The subject disclosure is directed towards crowd-based approach to boosting the correctness of a computer program. Results from candidate programs obtained from a first crowd and which may be blended with one another into synthesized programs are sent to a second crowd for evaluation. Based upon the results, a training set evolves and programs are filtered based upon fitness. The process of blending and fitness evaluation with an evolved training set may be iteratively repeated to find a most fit program.
