Partial Rankings of Optimizers

Julian Rodemann · Hannah Blocher

Halle B #252

Abstract:

We introduce a framework for benchmarking optimizers according to multiple criteria over various test functions. Based on a recently introduced union-free generic depth function for partial orders/rankings, it fully exploits the ordinal information and allows for incomparability. Our method describes the distribution of all partial orders/rankings, avoiding the notorious shortcomings of aggregation. This permits to identify test functions that produce central or outlying rankings of optimizers and to assess the quality of benchmarking suites.
