Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

[P] EvoTorch 0.4.0 dropped with GPU-accelerated implementations of CMA-ES, MAP-Elites and NSGA-II.
Awesome results! Would love to see a comparison with other accelerated evolution methods (eg https://github.com/google/evojax)

Online courses on statistics and multi-objective optimization
For which problems do you want to apply multiple-objective optimization? What are the objectives? https://mml-book.github.io/ is only about single objective optimization (including constraints). Multi objective reinfocement learning (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.08342.pdf) is not really MO-optimization. Machine learning optimization frameworks like https://github.com/google/evojax support single objective optimization and quality-diversity (MAP-elites), but not MO-optimization.

Performance of Evolutionary Algorithms for Machine Learning
Googles evojax project shows that evolutionary algorithms may be applied in the machine learning domain. And https://github.com/google/jax provides means to implement these algorithms to be deployed on CPUs/GPUs or even TPUs. But some questions remain unanswered:
