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...
We implement a weighted negative update of the covariance matrix in the CMA-ES—weighted active CMA-ES or, in short, aCMA-ES. We benchmark the IPOP-aCMA-ES and compare the perfor...
The Covariance-Matrix-Adaptation Evolution-Strategy (CMA-ES) is a robust stochastic search algorithm for optimizing functions defined on a continuous search space RD . Recently, ...
