Snapshot of `cargo run --release --example compare` after the v0.3.0
algorithm cohort. The harness runs 7 benchmark problems × ~20
algorithms × 10 seeds each (≈3 minutes wall-clock); this file is the
reference output so readers can scan results without running it
themselves.
Highlights worth reading even if you're skipping the file:
- ZDT1: MOPSO and MOEA/D dominate convergence; (1+1)-ES and DE tie
at f = 0 on Rastrigin
- IPOP-CMA-ES drops vanilla CMA-ES from f=2.35 to f=0.13 on
Rastrigin (the multimodal failure-mode it was added to fix)
- IBEA wins DTLZ2 (15× closer to true front than NSGA-III)
- GrEA wins DTLZ1 (linear simplex front matches grid-based niching)
- Nelder-Mead = 0 exactly on Rosenbrock; CMA-ES at machine epsilon
- Bayesian optimization at 60 evals is honestly bad on 5-D problems
with the default kernel — flagged so readers don't conclude BO is
weak in general; it just needs more evals or hyperparameter tuning
