• Abstract: The landscapes of real-world optimization problems can vary strongly depending on the application. In engineering design optimization, objective functions and constraints are often derived from governing equations, resulting in moderate multimodality. However, benchmark problems with such moderate multimodality are typically confined to low-dimensional cases, making it challenging to conduct meaningful comparisons. To address this, we present a benchmark test suite focused on the design of human-powered aircraft for single and multi-objective optimization. This test suite incorporates governing equations from aerodynamics and material mechanics, providing a realistic testing environment. It includes 60 problems across three difficulty levels, with a wing segmentation parameter to scale complexity and dimensionality. Both constrained and unconstrained versions are provided, with penalty methods applied to the unconstrained version. The test suite is computationally inexpensive while retaining key characteristics of engineering problems. Numerical experiments indicate the presence of moderate multimodality, and multi-objective problems exhibit diverse Pareto front shapes.

  Real-world experiments involve batched & delayed feedback, non-stationarity, multiple objectives & constraints, and (often some) personalization. Tailoring adaptive methods to address these challenges on a per-problem basis is infeasible, and static designs remain the de facto standard. We present a mathematical programming formulation that can flexibly incorporate a wide range of objectives, constraints, and statistical procedures.

  Multi-objective AI planning suffers from a lack of benchmarks exhibiting known Pareto Fronts. We propose a tunable benchmark generator, together with a dedicated solver that provably computes the true Pareto front of the resulting instances. We show how to characterize the optimal plans for a constrained version of the problem, and then show how to reduce the general problem to the constrained one.
