CMA-ES, or Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy, is a powerful optimization algorithm used primarily for solving real-valued function optimization problems. It is particularly effective for high-dimensional, non-linear optimization tasks often encountered in robotic simulations. The algorithm adapts the covariance matrix of the search distribution, allowing it to efficiently explore the solution space and converge towards optimal solutions in complex landscapes.
congrats on reading the definition of CMA-ES. now let's actually learn it.
