摘要

In earlier work we described how an evolution strategy could be used to automate the design of luminaire reflectors. In particular, a merit function specific to this evolutionary design method was presented. In this paper, we outline how the merit function was developed, the problems encountered during the development process and how they were overcome. Results are presented for the test problem, of generating a mirror design, which produces a desired light distribution at a single target plane. The merit function is also applied to the more difficult task of matching target distributions at parallel planes.
