Description: Covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy, about one kind of new optimization algorithms developed in 2000, referred to as CMA-ES, the last ten years has been widespread concern in academic circles, very prospect. This is a black box optimization algorithm, you can then define their own optimization program at the end of the function, you can also call an external program (such as finite element, etc.) are calculated, and then extract the optimal solution function. The optimization algorithm in a variety of variable dimensions outperformed ant colony algorithm, particle swarm optimization, better convergence, thanks to its rigorous mathematical expression.
