AbstractThe Evolution Strategy is a statistical optimization technique derived from the theory of Evolution, the process through which forms of life adapt themselves to a changing environment. Any system or process which can be described by a finite number of parameters and whose performance can be measured by a "Quality Number" may be optimized through the Evolution Strategy.The Evolution Strategy is especially well suited for experimental optimization whereby the "Objective Function" is unknown.The strongest argument for the Evolution Strategy is that it guarantees conversion to the "Global Optimum".The relative efficiency of the Evolution Strategy increases with the increase of the number of independent system parameters.
