Several population-based methods (with origins in the world of evolutionary strategies and estimation-of-distribution algorithms) for black-box optimization in continuous domains ...
This paper benchmarks the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm using the noise-free BBOB 2010 testbed. The results show how this algorithm is highly successful in the separable a...
This paper describes the implementation and the results for CMA-EGS on the BBOB 2010 noiseless function testbed. The CMA-EGS is a hybrid strategy which combines elements from grad...
Sequential selection was introduced for Evolution Strategies (ESs) with the aim of accelerating their convergence— performing the evaluations of the different offspring sequen...
Derandomization by means of mirrored samples has been recently introduced to enhance the performances of (1, λ)Evolution-Strategies (ESs) with the aim of designing fast and robus...
Generalized generation gap algorithm with parent centric crossover is compared with Rosenbrock’s optimization algorithm. Both algorithms were already presented at the BBOB 2009 ...
Derandomization by means of mirroring has been recently introduced to enhance the performances of (1, λ)-EvolutionStrategies (ESs) with the aim of designing fast robust local sea...
