ABSTRACT
This paper describes the application of a Gaussian Estimation-of-Distribution (EDA) for real-valued optimization to the noisy part of a benchmark introduced in 2009 called BBOB (Black-Box Optimization Benchmarking). Specifically, the EDA considered here is the recently introduced parameter-free version of the Adapted Maximum-Likelihood Gaussian Model Iterated Density-Estimation Evolutionary Algorithm (AMaLGaM-IDEA). Also the version with incremental model building (iAMaLGaM-IDEA) is considered.

Black-box optimization benchmarking of IPOP-saACM-ES and BIPOP-saACM-ES on the BBOB-2012 noiseless testbed
GECCO '12: Proceedings of the 14th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computationIn this paper, we study the performance of IPOP-saACM-ES and BIPOP-saACM-ES, recently proposed self-adaptive surrogate-assisted Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategies. Both algorithms were tested using restarts till a total number of function ...
Black-box optimization benchmarking the IPOP-CMA-ES on the noisy testbed: comparison to the BIPOP-CMA-ES
GECCO '10: Proceedings of the 12th annual conference companion on Genetic and evolutionary computationWe benchmark the IPOP-CMA-ES on the noisy testbed of the BBOB 2010 workshop. The performances of the IPOP-CMA-ES are compared to those of the BIPOP-CMA-ES. Both algorithms are shown to perform comparably on the BBOB noisy testbed.
