Setup of the APD for the CMA-ES

The APD file for the CMA-ES contains information about the problem design. The JAVA CMA-ES algorithm uses the parameters from Tab. 4.

**Table 4:** JAVA CMA-ES: Parameters as reported by the algorithm
$\begin{table} \begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{lp{0.7\textwidth}l} Name & Parameter ... .... 0.0 ) & arot\\ tx & typical X ( e.g. 0.5 )& tx\\ \end{tabularx}\end{table}$

# cmaEs0.apd: cmaEs problem design parameters
seed = 123
d = 10
evals = 100
f = 10
frot = 0
arot = 0.0
tx = 1.0

SPOT provides an CMA-ES APD template, which can be downloaded from the workshop's web site.
