In this thesis, we investigate aspects of adaptive randomized methods for black-box continuous optimization. The algorithms that we study are based on the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) algorithm and focus on large scale optimization problems.We start with a description of CMA-ES and its relation to the Information Geometric Optimization (IGO) framework, succeeded by a comparative study of large scale variants of CMA-ES. We furthermore propose novel methods which integrate tools of high dimensional estimation within CMA-ES, to obtain more efficient algorithms for large scale partially separable problems.Additionally, we describe the methodology for algorithm performance evaluation adopted by the Comparing Continuou...
