Questions about problem. #4

Hello,

After reading the pdf provided about the problem statement, I currently have two questions:

  1. How to calculate y_c, i.e. the real y-axis system centroid? Just use (y1m1 + y2m2 + ... yN*mN )/(m1+m2+...+mN)? Or it has embedded in your code?
  2. In your given problem (1-4), it doesn't give the position of heat pipes. In the problem description, I just find the number, width, and maximum load power, but the position of each pipe is not given. From my side, if we lack such information, we can't calculate the overlapping constraints.

Thanks.

Thanks for your participation!

Actually, evaluation codes for all four public problems, including MATLAB and Python versions, have been well-prepared that can be downloaded in our competition page and directly used for your evolutionary algorithm. The problem statement here just helps you understand our problem. You can treat our problems as black-box optimization ones with our provided evaluation codes. Besides, we have provided the standard algorithm interface in Code Submission part of the competition page. I believe it can help you more.
