Improved Stochastic Ranking Evolution Strategy optimizer.
- Improved Stochastic Ranking Evolution Strategy (ISRES) is an algorithm for non-linearly constrained global optimization. It has heuristics to escape local optima, even though convergence to a global optima is not guaranteed. The evolution strategy is based on a combination of a mutation rule and differential variation. The fitness ranking is simply via the objective function for problems without nonlinear constraints. When nonlinear constraints are included, the [stochastic ranking proposed by Runarsson and Yao](https://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~xin/papers/published_tec_sep00_constraint.pdf) is employed. This method supports arbitrary nonlinear inequality and equality constraints, in addition to the bound constraints.
