Distributed evolution strategies for large-scale optimization

2022 · Proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference Companion

As their underlying models are becoming larger and data-driven, an increasing number of modern real-world applications can be mathematically formulated as large-scale continuous optimization. In this paper, we propose a distributed evolution strategy (DES) for …
