The restarted estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) with Cauchy distribution as the probabilistic model is tested on the BBOB 2009 testbed. These tests prove that when using ...
: As we know the Cauchy distribution plays an important role in Probability Theory and Statistics. In this paper, we investigate the estimation of the location and the scale parame...
Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are widely used in stochastic optimization. Impressive experimental results have been reported in the literature. However, little work ...
We study the update of the distribution in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms, and show that a simple modiļ¬cation leads to unbiased estimates of the optimum. The simple modiļ...
āDespite the wide-spread popularity of estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs), there has been no theoretical proof that there exist optimisation problems where EDAs perform...
