The R-Package FLACCO for Exploratory Landscape Analysis with Applications to Multi-Objective Optimization Problems

Kerschke Pascal, Trautmann Heike


Abstract
Exploratory Landscape Analysis (ELA) aims at understanding characteristics of single-objective continuous (black-box) optimization problems in an automated way. Moreover, the approach provides the basis for constructing algorithm selection models for unseen problem instances. Recently, it has gained increasing attention and numerical features have been designed by various research groups. This paper introduces the R-Package FLACCO which makes all relevant features available in a unified framework together with efficient helper functions. Moreover, a case study which gives perspectives to ELA for multi-objective optimization problems is presented.
