  • Abstract
    Algorithm selection is an important consideration in multi-method global optimization. This paper investigates the use of various algorithm selection strategies derived from well known evolutionary selection mechanisms. Selection strategy performance is evaluated on a diverse set of floating point benchmark problems and meaningful conclusions are drawn with regard to the impact of selective pressure on algorithm selection in a multi-method environment.
