Sintesi	CMA-ES, short for Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy, is a modern derivative-free optimizer for continuous black-box functions introduced by Hansen and Ostermeier in 2001. It maintains a population of candidate solutions drawn from a multivariate normal distribution and iteratively updates the distribution's mean, step size, and full covariance matrix to steer the search toward better regions of the parameter space. It has become the de-facto standard for continuous black-box optimization and is widely used in neural architecture search and reinforcement-learning policy optimization.	Surrogate-based optimization, formalized in the computer-experiments framework of Sacks et al. (1989) and popularized for engineering by Forrester et al. (2008), replaces a prohibitively expensive simulation or physical experiment with a cheap approximate model — called a surrogate or metamodel — and then optimizes that surrogate instead. The surrogate is typically a Kriging (Gaussian Process), Radial Basis Function, or polynomial response surface fitted to a small set of carefully chosen design evaluations and periodically updated as the search progresses.
