Abstract
Genetic Programming is an evolutionary programming technique with autonomous range, which, simulating evolutionary processes generates a computer program capable of carrying out a pre-established task starting from a set of known data. The technique has been successfully used when dealing with complex non-linear problems where neither the size nor the shape of the solution is explicitly known. In order to verify the Genetic Programming capacity, this methodology was implemented to study the rainfall-runoff process that takes place in river basins, using the excesses rainfall registered for a particular river basin in Colombia as the only input for the model. The results show that the use of the expressions and relations obtained by Genetic Programming could become an alternative to the traditional rainfall-runoff models, however the equations universality must be certificated.
