A stigmergy-based algorithm for black-box optimization: noiseless function testbed

In this paper, we present a stigmergy-based algorithm for solving optimization problems with continuous variables, labeled Differential Ant-Stigmergy Algorithm (DASA). The performance of the DASA is evaluated on the set of benchmark problems provided for Black-Box Optimization Benchmarking (BBOB) 2009, a GECCO Workshop for Real-Parameter Optimization. Benchmarking for noiseless function testbed is presented. Categories and Subject Descriptors
