Surrogate Constraint Functions for CMA Evolution Strategies
Many practical optimization problems are constrained black boxes. Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategies (CMA-ES) belong to the most successful black box optimization me...

The dispersion metric and the CMA evolution strategy
An algorithm independent metric is introduced that measures the dispersion of a uniform random sample drawn from the top ranked percentiles of the search space. A low dispersion f...

Scalarization versus indicator-based selection in multi-objective CMA evolution strategies
Abstract—While scalarization approaches to multicriteria optimization become infeasible in the case of many objectives, for few objectives the benefits of populationbased method...

Performance analysis of niching algorithms based on derandomized-ES variants
A survey of niching algorithms, based on 5 variants of derandomized Evolution Strategies (ES), is introduced. This set of niching algorithms, ranging from the very first derandom...
