This paper reveals the surprising result that a single-parent non-elitist evolution strategy (ES) can be locally faster than the (1+1)-ES. The result is brought about by mirrored s...

— We extend the Evolution Strategy with Covariance Matrix Adaptation (CMA-ES) by collaborative concepts from Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The proposed Particle Swarm CMA-ES...
We study the evolution of robustness in digital organisms adapting to a high mutation rate. As genomes adjust to the harsh mutational environment, the mean effect of single mutatio...
Using decentralized control structures for robot control can offer a lot of advantages, such as less complexity, better fault tolerance and more flexibility. In this paper the ev...
