Title: Univariate Marginal Distribution Algorithm
Description: Implements the Univariate Marginal Distribution Algorithm
        (UMDA), an Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) for
        continuous optimization problems. The method iteratively
        selects the best individuals from a population, estimates an
        independent marginal probability distribution for each decision
        variable, and generates new candidate solutions by sampling
        from the estimated distributions. This process allows the
        probability model to adapt toward promising regions of the
        search space. The implementation supports normal, triangular,
        histogram-based, and uniform probability distributions,
        together with an optional explicit exploration strategy for the
        initialization of the population. The implemented explicit
        exploration strategy in this package is described in Salinas
        Gutierrez and Muñoz Zavala (2023)
