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…
