Analysis of modular CMA-ES on strict box-constrained problems in the SBOX-COST benchmarking suite

no code implementations24 May 2023 Diederick Vermetten, Manuel López-Ibáñez, Olaf Mersmann, Richard Allmendinger, Anna V. Kononova

Specifically, we want to understand the performance difference between BBOB and SBOX-COST as a function of two initialization methods and six constraint-handling strategies all tested with modular CMA-ES.

Applying Ising Machines to Multi-objective QUBOs

no code implementations19 May 2023 Mayowa Ayodele, Richard Allmendinger, Manuel López-Ibáñez, Arnaud Liefooghe, Matthieu Parizy

In this work, we extend the adaptive method based on averages in two ways: (i)~we extend the adaptive method of deriving scalarisation weights for problems with two or more objectives, and (ii)~we use an alternative measure of distance to improve performance.

Multi-Objective Archiving

no code implementations16 Mar 2023 Miqing Li, Manuel López-Ibáñez, Xin Yao

Such an archive can be solely used to store high-quality solutions presented to the decision maker, but in many cases may participate in the search process (e. g., as the population in evolutionary computation).

A Study of Scalarisation Techniques for Multi-Objective QUBO Solving

no code implementations20 Oct 2022 Mayowa Ayodele, Richard Allmendinger, Manuel López-Ibáñez, Matthieu Parizy

These solvers are then applied to QUBO formulations of combinatorial optimisation problems.

Improving Nevergrad's Algorithm Selection Wizard NGOpt through Automated Algorithm Configuration

no code implementations9 Sep 2022 Risto Trajanov, Ana Nikolikj, Gjorgjina Cenikj, Fabien Teytaud, Mathurin Videau, Olivier Teytaud, Tome Eftimov, Manuel López-Ibáñez, Carola Doerr

Algorithm selection wizards are effective and versatile tools that automatically select an optimization algorithm given high-level information about the problem and available computational resources, such as number and type of decision variables, maximal number of evaluations, possibility to parallelize evaluations, etc.

Multi-objective QUBO Solver: Bi-objective Quadratic Assignment

no code implementations26 May 2022 Mayowa Ayodele, Richard Allmendinger, Manuel López-Ibáñez, Matthieu Parizy

We present the first attempt to extend the algorithm supporting a commercial QUBO solver as a multi-objective solver that is not based on scalarisation.

Are Evolutionary Algorithms Safe Optimizers?

no code implementations24 Mar 2022 Youngmin Kim, Richard Allmendinger, Manuel López-Ibáñez

We consider a type of constrained optimization problem, where the violation of a constraint leads to an irrevocable loss, such as breakage of a valuable experimental resource/platform or loss of human life.

Extensible Logging and Empirical Attainment Function for IOHexperimenter

no code implementations28 Sep 2021 Johann Dreo, Manuel López-Ibáñez

IOHexperimenter provides a large set of synthetic problems, a logging system, and a fast implementation.

Managing Manufacturing and Delivery of Personalised Medicine: Current and Future Models

no code implementations21 May 2021 Andreea Avramescu, Richard Allmendinger, Manuel López-Ibáñez

To accelerate technology adoption in this domain, we characterize pertinent practical challenges in a PM supply chain and then capture them in a holistic mathematical model ready for optimisation.

Reproducibility in Evolutionary Computation

no code implementations5 Feb 2021 Manuel López-Ibáñez, Juergen Branke, Luís Paquete

Experimental studies are prevalent in Evolutionary Computation (EC), and concerns about the reproducibility and replicability of such studies have increased in recent times, reflecting similar concerns in other scientific fields.

Safe Learning and Optimization Techniques: Towards a Survey of the State of the Art

no code implementations23 Jan 2021 Youngmin Kim, Richard Allmendinger, Manuel López-Ibáñez

Safe learning and optimization deals with learning and optimization problems that avoid, as much as possible, the evaluation of non-safe input points, which are solutions, policies, or strategies that cause an irrecoverable loss (e. g., breakage of a machine or equipment, or life threat).

Local Optimal Sets and Bounded Archiving on Multi-objective NK-Landscapes with Correlated Objectives

no code implementations19 Sep 2014 Manuel López-Ibáñez, Arnaud Liefooghe, Sébastien Verel

Such local search algorithms typically return a set of mutually nondominated Pareto local optimal (PLO) solutions, that is, a PLO-set.
