Abstract:Theoretical analyses of evolution strategies are indispensable for gaining a deep understanding of their inner workings. For constrained problems, rather simple problems are of interest in the current research. This work presents a theoretical analysis of a multi-recombinative evolution strategy with cumulative step size adaptation applied to a conically constrained linear optimization problem. The state of the strategy is modeled by random variables and a stochastic iterative mapping is introduced. For the an… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
