Active covariance matrix adaptation for the (1+1)-CMA-ES
We propose a novel variant of the (1 + 1)-CMA-ES that updates the distribution of mutation vectors based on both successful and unsuccessful trial steps. The computational costs o...

Covariance of Kinetic Parameter Estimators Based on Time Activity Curve Reconstructions: Preliminary Study on 1D Dynamic Imaging
We provide approximate expressions for the covariance matrix of kinetic parameter estimators based on time activity curve (TAC) reconstructions when TACs are modeled as a linear c...

On persymmetric covariance matrices in adaptive detection
In the general area of radar detection, estimation of the clutter covariance matrix is an important point. This matrix commonly exhibits a persymmetric structure: this is the case...

Spatio-temporal adaptive detector in non-homogeneous and low-rank clutter
Reducing the number of secondary data used to estimate the Clutter Covariance Matrix (CCM) for Space Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) techniques is still an active research topic. ...

Investigating the impact of sequential selection in the (1, 2)-CMA-ES on the noiseless BBOB-2010 testbed
This paper investigates the impact of sequential selection, a concept recently introduced for Evolution Strategies (ESs), that consists in performing the evaluations of the diffe...
