An ES works on a population of real valued solutions
 | 
						|
by repeated use of evolutionary operators like reproduction,
 | 
						|
recombination and mutation.
 | 
						|
λ offspring individuals are generated from μ parents
 | 
						|
by recombination and mutation (with μ < λ). 
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
After evaluating the fitness of the λ
 | 
						|
offspring individuals, the comma-strategy selects the μ individuals 
 | 
						|
with the best fitness as parent population for the next generation.
 | 
						|
On the other hand, a plus-strategy selects the best μ individuals
 | 
						|
from the aggregation of parents and offspring individuals, so in this
 | 
						|
case the best individual is guaranteed to survive.
 | 
						|
In general, however, the comma-strategy is more robust and can easier
 | 
						|
escape from local optima, which is why it is usually the standard selection.
