A mathematically derived number of resamplings for noisy optimization
Résumé
In Noisy Optimization, one of the most common way to deal with noise is through resampling. In this paper, we compare various resampling rules applied to Evolution Strategy (ES). The goal is to provide a conclusive answer for resampling rules in simple settings. We use a variant of ES as our main algorithm: Self-Adaptive (μ/μ,λ)-Evolution Strategy. We focus our attention on local noisy optimization. In other words, we are interested in situation where reducing the noise is more important than avoiding local minima. We study different sampling rules on the noisy sphere function and compare them experimentally. We conclude that there exists parameter-free formulas that provide adequate resampling rules.
