How to set `bounds` properly? #59

Closed GiggleLiu closed 4 years ago

GiggleLiu commented 4 years ago

One can specify the ConstraintBounds as the optimizer input, however, it is more likely designed for lagrange multiplier.

It does take effect during population generation of CMAES:

Currently, I need a bound that populations can be cliped on this bounds like

clip!(generated_population, bounds)

Do you think it is proper to add a new bounds as field of CMAES? Naively, the bounds type should contain a vector of upper bounds and a vector of lower bounds. Any comments?

I will try to submit a PR.
