Thanks for this extremely educational comment. I'm excited to read a bit more about DE and CMAES in particular! >>I could go on all day; this was a chapter in my dissertation I'd love a link (assuming it is publically available!)

Glad it was useful! Once I get started writing about GAs I have trouble slowing down. By the time I posted my comment it was three or four pages back, so I'm encouraged that somebody actually read it! Here's a link to my dissertation: https://etda.libraries.psu.edu/catalog/28690 https://etda.libraries.psu.edu/catalog/28690 I forgot to put a disclaimer in my post: Tim Simpson was my advisor, which is how I know about his paper with D'Souza. For DE, your best bet is probably to start with Rainer Storn's website: http://www1.icsi.berkeley.edu/~storn/code.html http://www1.icsi.berkeley.edu/~storn/code.html For CMAES, Hansen has a good website: https://www.lri.fr/~hansen/cmaesintro.html https://www.lri.fr/~hansen/cmaesintro.html
