This paper presents an efficient searching algorithm for one-dimensional cellular automata (CAs) with self-replicating structure. In the algorithm, the CA structure is represented by a simple fitness function and a genetic algorithm is used effectively where a gene implies a rule table. Based on preliminary experimental results, we provide interesting conjectures: 1) There exists optimal mutation rate for the fitness evolution, and 2) If genes are evolved successfully, they can produce some typical patterns.
