Abstract
The application of evolutionary algorithms in continuous optimization is a well-studied area of research. Nevertheless, recently there have been numerous works associated with surrogate-assisted approaches. This paper introduces LQ-R-SHADE: R-SHADE extended with a quadratic surrogate model. The principles of LQ-R-SHADE and its enhancements over the base R-SHADE are discussed in detail. The extension consists of the three main components: an archive of samples, a prescreening meta-model, and an initialization supported by the meta-model. In order to take advantage of the meta-model utilization as early as possible, a cascade of models is proposed: linear, quadratic, and quadratic with interactions. The proposed algorithm relies on multiple generation of mutated versions of each individual. The prescreening meta-model is then applied to select the most promising candidates for further evaluation with the use of a (costly) true fitness function. The performance of LQ-R-SHADE is evaluated on the well-known COCO BBOB benchmark and compared with the baseline R-SHADE method and its extension SHADE-LM, showing the advantage of the proposed algorithm. Besides numerical assessment, the impact of particular meta-model components on the obtained results is examined.
