Amusing thought: the remarkably good performance of the FOO Hamming oracle algorithms for the Hamming oracle results in a much worse performance of this algorithm for other oracles - an obvious conclusion of the No Free Lunch theorem.
@Winston Ewert: using the standard notation helps. But at least be consistent - your variance of ES(1+1) is introduced as the Rachtet Strategy in this paper, and was called Optimization by mutation with elitism in Conservation of Information. |
I'll elaborate on this thoughts here. |
There's an editing error at rational wiki, a superfluous "In the most simple of examples using a needle in a haystack" in the Footnotes section.
Otherwise, good work! Have you got a reaction by any of the authors, yet?
Not that I really expect them to respond to criticism... |
Thanks, I corrected it.
I never got any direct response, but some amusing indirect ones:
- Dembski cried foul on my critique of his problematic article "The Search for a Search"
- well, the article is delayed - and will look quite different in print, I suppose

Good grief, what a whiny bitch.
