This article presents statistical techniques for the design and analysis of evolution strategies. These techniques can be applied to other search heuristics such as genetic algorithms, simulated annealing or particle swarm optimizers. It provides guidelines for the comparison of di#erent algorithms on artifical test functions and on real-world optimization problems. Statistical experimental design techniques to improve the integrity and comparability of experiments are proposed. Interpreting the run of an optimization algorithm as an experiment, design of experiments (DOE), response surface methods (RSM), and tree-based regression methods can be applied to analyze and to improve its performance
