Researchers have developed a theoretical framework to analyze the convergence of evolution strategies (ES) when applied to mixed-integer optimization problems. They introduced two variants, (1+1)-LB-ES and (1+1)-LUB-ES, to address issues of premature convergence in continuous variables. Their analysis, focusing on a specific benchmark function, indicates that (1+1)-LB-ES can struggle with large numbers of integer variables, whereas (1+1)-LUB-ES demonstrates linear convergence under appropriate parameter settings.
