Hybridizing the 1/5-th Success Rule with Q-Learning for Controlling the Mutation Rate of an Evolutionary Algorithm

no code implementations19 Jun 2020 Arina Buzdalova, Carola Doerr, Anna Rodionova

We demonstrate that our HQL mechanism achieves equal or superior performance to all techniques tested in [Rodionova et al., GECCO'19] and this -- in contrast to previous parameter control methods -- simultaneously for all offspring population sizes $\lambda$.

Offspring Population Size Matters when Comparing Evolutionary Algorithms with Self-Adjusting Mutation Rates

no code implementations17 Apr 2019 Anna Rodionova, Kirill Antonov, Arina Buzdalova, Carola Doerr

We observe that for the 2-rate EA and the EA with multiplicative update rules the more generous bound $p_{\min}=1/n^2$ gives better results than $p_{\min}=1/n$ when $\lambda$ is small.
