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 is employed. This method supports arbitrary nonlinear inequality and equality constraints, in addition to the bound constraints.

Parameters: max_evals (int) – Maximum allowed number of function evaluations.
Raises: MissingOptionalLibraryError – NLopt library not installed.
