Title
A Generalized Stationary Point Convergence Theory for Evolutionary Algorithms
Abstract
This paper presents a convergence theory forevolutionary pattern search algorithms (EPSAs). EPSAs are self-adapting evolutionaryalgorithms that modify the step size of themutation operator in response to the successof previous optimization steps. Previously,we have proven a stationary point convergencetheory for EPSAs for which the stepsize is not allowed to increase. The presentanalysis generalizes this analysis to prove aconvergence theory for EPSAs that are allowedto both increase ...
