Abstract
This paper presents an approach based on evolutionary computations to the IFS inverse problem. Having a bitmap image we look for a set of functions that can reproduce a good approximation if a given image. A method using variable number of mappings is proposed. A number of different crossover operators is described and tested. Different parameters for fitness functions are also tested. The paper ends with some experimental results showing images we were able to generate with our method
