Black-box optimization benchmarking for noiseless function testbed using PSO_bounds

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 re-initialization mechanism that is invoked if the bounds tend to overlap. Categories and Subject Descriptors
