چکیده

The research described in this paper uses the CMAES evolution strategy to optimize matched forward and inverse transform pairs for the compression and reconstruction of images transmitted from Mars rovers under conditions subject to quantization error. Our best transforms outperform both the integer and floating-point implementations of the 2/6 wavelet, substantially reducing error in reconstructed images without allowing increases in compressed file size. This result establishes a new state-of-the-art for the lossy compression of images transmitted over the deep-space channel. Keywords-image compression; evolution strategies; wavelets; quantization

THE CMA EVOLUTION STRATEGY BASED SIZE OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES

Evolution Strategies (ES) are a class of Evolutionary Algorithms based on Gaussian mutation and deterministic selection. Gaussian mutation captures pair-wise dependencies between the variables through a covariance matrix. Covariance Matrix Adaptation (CMA) is a method to update this covariance matrix. In this paper, the CMA-ES, which has found many applications in solving continuous optimizatio...

Adaptive Doubly Trained Evolution Control for the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy

An area of increasingly frequent applications of evolutionary optimization to real-world problems is continuous black-box optimization. However, evaluating realworld black-box fitness functions is sometimes very timeconsuming or expensive, which interferes with the need of evolutionary algorithms for many fitness evaluations. Therefore, surrogate regression models replacing the original expensi...

Evolution Strategies for Direct Policy Search

The covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMAES) is suggested for solving problems described by Markov decision processes. The algorithm is compared with a state-of-the-art policy gradient method and stochastic search on the double cart-pole balancing task using linear policies. The CMA-ES proves to be much more robust than the gradient-based approach in this scenario.
