The Covariance-Matrix-Adaptation Evolution-Strategy (CMA-ES) is a robust stochastic search algorithm for optimizing functions defined on a continuous search space RD . Recently, ...
The generalized generation gap (G3) model of an evolutionary algorithm equipped with the parent centric crossover (PCX) is tested on the BBOB 2009 benchmark testbed. To improve it...
Sequential selection, introduced for Evolution Strategies (ESs) with the aim of accelerating their convergence, consists in performing the evaluations of the different offspring...
This paper benchmarks an Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) and Particle Swarm Optimizer (PSO) on noisefree BBOB 2009 testbed. The algorithm is referred to as EDA-PSO and ...
This paper benchmarks the particle swarm optimizer with adaptive bounds algorithm (PSO Bounds) on the noisefree BBOB 2009 testbed. The algorithm is further augmented with a simple...
