Evolutionary Algorithms, in particular Evolution Strategies, Genetic Algorithms, or Evolutionary Programming, have found wide acceptance as robust optimization algorithms in the last ten years. Compared with the broad propagation and the resulting practical prosperity in different scientific fields, the theory has not progressed as much.
This monograph provides the framework and the first steps toward the theoretical analysis of Evolution Strategies (ES). The main emphasis is on understanding the functioning of these probabilistic optimization algorithms in real-valued search spaces by investigating the dynamical properties of some well-established ES algorithms. The book introduces the basic concepts of this analysis, such as ... Read more

Reviews for The Theory Of Evolution Strategies
From the reviews: "He gives an extensive mathematical treatment of idealised models of behaviour for several types of EA … . The detail is extensive enough to guide and educate graduate students … . The figures are clear and convincing. Part of the quality of the book is its aesthetically pleasing layout, for both figures ... Read more
