Abstract

We benchmark the pure random search algorithm on the BBOB 2009 noise-free testbed. Each candidate solution is sampled uniformly in [-5, 5]D, where D denotes the search space dimension. The maximum number of function evaluations chosen is 106 times the search space dimension. With this budget the algorithm is not able to solve any single function of the testbed.
