MO-IOHinspector: Anytime Benchmarking of Multi-Objective Algorithms using IOHprofiler
Diederick Vermetten, Jeroen Rook, Oliver L. Preuß +5
Benchmarking is one of the key ways in which we can gain insight into the strengths and weaknesses of optimization algorithms. In sampling-based optimization, considering the anyti…
Sampling in CMA-ES: Low Numbers of Low Discrepancy Points
Jacob de Nobel, Diederick Vermetten, Thomas H. W. Bäck +1
The Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) is one of the most successful examples of a derandomized evolution strategy. However, it still relies on randomly sampl…
Avoiding Redundant Restarts in Multimodal Global Optimization
Jacob de Nobel, Diederick Vermetten, Anna V. Kononova +2
Naïve restarts of global optimization solvers when operating on multimodal search landscapes may resemble the Coupon's Collector Problem, with a potential to waste significant func…
Solving Deep Reinforcement Learning Tasks with Evolution Strategies and Linear Policy Networks
Annie Wong, Jacob de Nobel, Thomas Bäck +2
Although deep reinforcement learning methods can learn effective policies for challenging problems such as Atari games and robotics tasks, algorithms are complex, and training time…
