Does anyone know of a program that uses a GA to perform grammar induction/inference, I've read tonnes of research papers and articles on this stuff like Lankhorst and De Pauw but I can't find any implementations or programmes that use this technique anywhere. Any help on this greatly appreciated, cheers

I think the work by Oscar Nierstrasz, Markus Kobel and Tudor Gîrba in the context of the MOOSE framework and "agile modeling" could be starting point. They want to infer grammars for programming languages and their dialects, and they make a point of making their tools available in the public domain.

    I also found a few papers about [stochastic context-free grammar induction](https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C50&q=%22grammar+induction%22+%22genetic+algorithm%22+%22stochastic+context-free%22&btnG=) using genetic algorithms. – Anderson Green Dec 09 '21 at 21:28
