We benchmark the Covariance Matrix Adaptation-Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) algorithm with an Increasing POPulation size (IPOP) restart policy on the BBOB noiseless testbed. The IPO...
Evolution Strategies (ES) for black-box optimization of a function f : Rn → R are investigated. Namely, we consider the cumulative step-size adaptation (CSA) for the variance of...
Recent results show that the Differential Evolution algorithm has significant difficulty on functions that are not linearly separable. On such functions, the algorithm must rely...

The multi-objective covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (MO-CMA-ES) is a variable-metric algorithm for real-valued vector optimization. It maintains a parent population...
Constrained continuous optimization is still an interesting field of research. Many heuristics have been proposed in the last decade. Most of them are based on penalty functions....
