Research objective. We want to understand stochastic search (AKA randomized optimization) in
continuous, high-dimensional search spaces. When improving known or
developing new algorithms, we strongly care about whether and how they
are useful in practice. Typical research means are
statistical machine learning techniques,
Markov chain analysis, meaningful comparison methodologies,
and adaptive parameter control, eventually bridging the gap to the practitioners.
