Lesson plan
Evolution window
Evolution window is the narrow band of the mutation step size σ, where significant progress toward the fitness/objective function's optimum was observed in evolution strategies. There are three well-known methods to adapt the mutation step size σ in evolution strategies: * (1/5-th) Success Rule * Self-Adaptation (for example through log-normal mutations) * Cumulative Step Size Adaptation (CSA) On simple functions all of them have been empirically shown to keep the step size within the evolution window.
