Abstract

The theory of iterated function systems (IFS) allows one to construct a fractal which depends on a finite number of parameters. The associated inverse problem, finding a set of parameters which reconstructs a given fractal, is much more difficult. This paper explores the possibility of solving the inverse program with the genetic algorithm.
