Adds runners for the five new MO algorithms in both the ZDT1 (2-obj)
and DTLZ2 (3-obj) sections of `examples/compare.rs`. The harness now
side-by-sides 11 multi-/many-objective optimizers (RandomSearch + 10
real ones) on each problem.
Adds runners for HillClimber, SimulatedAnnealing, GeneticAlgorithm,
ParticleSwarm, CmaEs, and Umda to `examples/compare.rs`. Rastrigin
section now compares 8 single-objective optimizers against each other
on a fixed evaluation budget.
The MO sections (ZDT1, DTLZ2) are unchanged for now — MOPSO and IBEA
get added in a follow-up commit so each algorithm's debut shows up
clearly in the harness.
Two new runners — `zdt1_moead` and `dtlz2_moead` — using the same
SBX + PolyMut variation as the other Pareto-based methods. Reference
divisions chosen so the implied population size is comparable to the
other algorithms in each section (99 → 100 weights for ZDT1; 12 → 91
weights for DTLZ2).
- nsga3: drop redundant `.into_iter()` in extend call; use
`#[allow(clippy::needless_range_loop)]` on the back-substitution
loop where `j` indexes into the matrix; remove an unneeded
`return` keyword in a closure.
- spea2: switch `pool.extend(x.drain(..))` to `pool.append(&mut x)`.
- examples/compare.rs DTLZ2 evaluator: same `needless_range_loop`
silencer on the inner cosine product loop.
NSGA-III's value over NSGA-II shows up at 3+ objectives, where
crowding distance loses its diversity signal. Adds a third comparison
section to `examples/compare.rs`:
DTLZ2 (3-objective, 12-D, the textbook benchmark for many-objective
algorithms): unit-sphere-octant Pareto front. Compares RandomSearch,
NSGA-II, SPEA2, and NSGA-III on:
- mean distance from front points to the unit sphere
(closed-form: |1 - sqrt(f1² + f2² + f3²)|),
- spacing,
- front size,
- wall-clock ms.
NSGA-III config: H=12 reference divisions (91 reference points,
matching the canonical setup from Deb & Jain 2014).
Also wires NSGA-III into the existing ZDT1 (2-objective) section even
though it's not its sweet spot — useful as a regression check that the
algorithm at least keeps up with NSGA-II on bi-objective problems.
A comparison example that runs every applicable optimizer on ZDT1 and
Rastrigin across N seeds and reports mean ± stddev for each quality
metric. Designed so a new algorithm slots in by adding a single runner
function — no harness changes needed.
ZDT1 (multi-objective, dim=30):
Reports hypervolume_2d (against ref point [1.1, 1.1]), spacing, mean
L2 distance to the analytical Pareto front, front size, and wall-clock
ms. RandomSearch, PAES, and NSGA-II all use bounds-aware operators
(RealBounds, BoundedGaussianMutation, SBX+PolyMut) so the Problem
itself stays unclamped — apples-to-apples.
Rastrigin (single-objective, dim=5):
Reports mean ± stddev best objective and ms. RandomSearch, PAES,
NSGA-II (degenerate single-obj case), and DE.
Default budget: 10 seeds × 25,000 evaluations on ZDT1, × 50,000 on
Rastrigin. Run with:
