Benchmarking Evolutionary Algorithms For Single Objective Real-valued Constrained Optimization - A Critical Review
Benchmarking plays an important role in the development of novel search
algorithms as well as for the assessment and comparison of contemporary
algorithmic ideas. This paper presents common principles that need to be taken
into account when considering benchmarking problems for constrained
optimization. Current benchmark environments for testing Evolutionary
Algorithms are reviewed in the light of these principles. Along with this line,
the reader is provided with an overview of the available problem domains in the
field of constrained benchmarking. Hence, the review supports algorithms
developers with information about the merits and demerits of the available
frameworks.Comment: This manuscript is a preprint version of an article published in

Proceedings of the International Workshop "What can FCA do for Artificial Intelligence?" (FCA4AI 2014)
International audienceThis is the third edition of the FCA4AI workshop, whose first edition was organized at ECAI 2012 Conference (Montpellier, August 2012) and second edition was organized at IJCAI 2013 Conference (Beijing, August 2013, see http://www.fca4ai.hse.ru/). Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is a mathematically well-founded theory aimed at data analysis and classification that can be used for many purposes, especially for Artificial Intelligence (AI) needs. The objective of the workshop is to investigate two main main issues: how can FCA support various AI activities (knowledge discovery, knowledge representation and reasoning, learning, data mining, NLP, information retrieval), and how can FCA be extended in order to help AI researchers to solve new and complex problems in their domain
