>
> When fitting with bounds, the CMAESOptimizer fits finely near the lower bound
> and coarsely near the upper bound. This is because it internally maps the
> fitted parameter range into the interval [0,1]. The unit of least precision
> (ulp) between floating point numbers is much smaller near zero than near one.
> Thus, fits have much better resolution near the lower bound (which is mapped
> to zero) than the upper bound (which is mapped to one). I will attach a
> example program to demonstrate.
