The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Math::ES
DSLIP: bdpOp
description: Evolution Strategy: genetic optimizer
userid: AHCHORN (Anselm H. C. Horn)
chapterid: 6 (Data_Type_Utilities)
communities:
similar:
Math::Simplex
rationale:
Function optimizing is one of the basic computer usages.
Unfortunately, there is only one single module available on CPAN for
that task, the Math::Simplex. The Math::ES module provides another
tool for non-linear ("genetic") optimization procedures, as e.g. in
parameterization.
Almost everybody knows GAs, genetic algorithms, but Evolution
Strategies (ES) are rather unknown, although they have been
developped simulataneously. So this modules follows two intentions:
provide users with another optimizer tool and make the idea of ES
more public.
The module is in oo-style; it allows multiple populations with
migration and mixing, elitism, cross over, mutation, two selection
schemes and self adapting step widths.
So much for the uniqueness ...
