Hi all,

My name is Eva Alfaro-Cid and I work in a research institute in Valencia
(Spain).

Lately I have been working on the creation of bankruptcy prediction models
using GP. I am trying to use the multiobjective SPEA2 package for my
problem but I get an error message that says:

I guess I have done something wrong while setting the parameters in
the .params file. (See attachment)

Can anyone help me to figure out what I am doing wrong?

Best regards, Eva
