public class ZDTScalabilityIStudy
extends Object
Example of experimental study based on solving the ZDT1 problem but using five different
number of variables. This can be interesting to study the behaviour of the algorithms when solving
an scalable problem (in the number of variables). The used algorithms are NSGA-II, SPEA2 and
SMPSO.
This experiment assumes that the reference Pareto front is of problem ZDT1 is known,
so the name of file containing it and the directory where it are located must be specified. Note
that the name of the file must be replicated to be equal to the number of problem variants.
Six quality indicators are used for performance assessment.
The steps to carry out the experiment are: 1. Configure the experiment 2. Execute the algorithms
3. Generate the reference Pareto fronts 4. Compute the quality indicators 5. Generate Latex
tables reporting means and medians 6. Generate Latex tables with the result of applying the
Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test 7. Generate Latex tables with the ranking obtained by applying the
Friedman test 8. Generate R scripts to obtain boxplots
