Different types of evolutionary algorithms have been developed for
constrained continuous optimization. We carry out a feature-based analysis of
evolved constrained continuous optimization instances to understand the
characteristics of constraints that make problems hard for evolutionary
algorithm. In our study, we examine how various sets of constraints can
influence the behaviour of e-Constrained Differential Evolution. Investigating
the evolved instances, we obtain knowledge of what type of constraints and
their features make a problem difficult for the examined algorithm.Comment: 17 Page
