Distributed Evolution Strategies with Multi-Level Learning for Large-Scale Black-Box Optimization

Qiqi Duan, Chang Shao, Guochen Zhou +3

In the post-Moore era, main performance gains of black-box optimizers are increasingly depending on parallelism, especially for large-scale optimization (LSO). Here we propose to p…

Cooperative Coevolution for Non-Separable Large-Scale Black-Box Optimization: Convergence Analyses and Distributed Accelerations

Qiqi Duan, Chang Shao, Guochen Zhou +3

Given the ubiquity of non-separable optimization problems in real worlds, in this paper we analyze and extend the large-scale version of the well-known cooperative coevolution (CC)…

PyPop7: A Pure-Python Library for Population-Based Black-Box Optimization

Qiqi Duan, Guochen Zhou, Chang Shao +7

In this paper, we present an open-source pure-Python library called PyPop7 for black-box optimization (BBO). As population-based methods (e.g., evolutionary algorithms, swarm intel…
