Introducing imbalance between the contribution of various subcomponents, subComponents with nonuniform sizes, and conforming and conflicting overlapping functions are among the major new features proposed in this report.
Abstract
This report proposes 15 large-scale benchmark problems as an extension to the existing CEC’2010 large-scale global optimization benchmark suite. The aim is to better represent a wider range of realworld large-scale optimization problems and provide convenience and flexibility for comparing various evolutionary algorithms specifically designed for large-s cale global optimization. Introducing imbalance between the contribution of various subcomponents, subcomponents with nonuniform sizes, and conforming and conflicting overlapping functions are among the major new features proposed in this report.
