Black-box optimization benchmarking for noiseless function testbed using an EDA and PSO hybrid

This paper benchmarks an Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) and Particle Swarm Optimizer (PSO) on noise-free BBOB 2009 testbed. The algorithm is referred to as EDA-PSO and further enhanced with correlation-triggered adaptive variance scaling.
