cma.sigma_adaptation.CMAAdaptSigmaDistanceProportional

class documentation

class CMAAdaptSigmaDistanceProportional(CMAAdaptSigmaBase):

Constructor: CMAAdaptSigmaDistanceProportional(coefficient, **kwargs)

artificial setting of sigma proportional to ||m||,

specifically sigma = coefficient * mueff * norm(mean) / n / c_m.

The optimal coefficient in infinite dimension is 1.253 = (pi/2)**0.5, the optimal mueff is lambda / pi, hence the optimal phi is pi/2 x lambda / pi / 2 = lambda / 4 where exp(-phi/n) is the (log-)expected converence rate per iteration.

This is mainly useful for test purposes, e.g. to simulate optimal progress rates.

Method	`__init__`	pass coefficient multiplier for normalized step-size
Method	`update`	update `es.sigma` by calling `update2`.
Method	`update2`	return sigma update factor.
Instance Variable	`coefficient`	Undocumented
Instance Variable	`is_initialized`	Undocumented
Instance Variable	`_direct_mode`	experimental: when True, interpret coefficient as sigma / norm(mean)

Inherited from CMAAdaptSigmaBase:

Method	`check_consistency`	make consistency checks with a `CMAEvolutionStrategy` instance as input
Method	`hsig`	return "OK-signal" for rank-one update, `True` (OK) or `False` (stall rank-one update), based on the length of an evolution path
Method	`initialize_base`	set parameters and state variable based on dimension, mueff and possibly further options.
Instance Variable	`cs`	Undocumented
Instance Variable	`delta`	cumulated effect of adaptation
Instance Variable	`is_initialized_base`	Undocumented
Instance Variable	`ps`	Undocumented
Method	`_update_ps`	update the isotropic evolution path.
Instance Variable	`_ps_updated_iteration`	Undocumented
