To be consistent with literature, ECJ's default pipeline has probability of two-child crossover at 90% and probability of one- child reproduction at 10%. No mutation pipelines are used. If you wish to add one, you need to modify the pipeline parameters to include a mutator (there are plenty), for example, like this: pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.num-sources = 3 pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.source.0 = ec.gp.koza.CrossoverPipeline pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.source.0.prob = 0.7 pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.source.1 = ec.breed.ReproductionPipeline pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.source.1.prob = 0.1 pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.source.2 = ec.gp.koza.MutationPipeline pop.subpop.0.species.pipe.source.2.prob = 0.2 You may then need to modify parameters for your mutator (in this case, MutationPipeline) to mutate in the way you wish.
