In a companion paper, we presented a weighted negative update of the covariance matrix in the CMA-ES—weighted active CMA-ES or, in short, aCMA-ES. In this paper, we benchmark th...
Derandomization by means of mirrored samples has been recently introduced to enhance the performances of (1, λ)Evolution-Strategies (ESs) with the aim of designing fast and robus...
Derandomization by means of mirroring has been recently introduced to enhance the performances of (1, λ)-EvolutionStrategies (ESs) with the aim of designing fast robust local sea...
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...
We benchmark the IPOP-CMA-ES on the noisy testbed of the BBOB 2010 workshop. The performances of the IPOPCMA-ES are compared to those of the BIPOP-CMA-ES. Both algorithms are show...
