Automatic Configuration of NSGA-II Algorithm with jMetal and Irace
momah opened this issue · comments
Hello, I hope all is well,
My queries are about using irace to tunning algorithm parameters. I have seen that jMetal has incorporated some classes to work with irace which I think is a great idea, but I do not understand how it works very well.
My queries:
- How does irace work with jMetal, how can irace access the jMetal algorithms? Or is it that irace has its own algorithms (NSGA-II, ..)
- I see that jMetal helps to automatically generate the input file for irace, but does this file have to be exported outside to use with irace independently of jMetal from Eclipse?
- I think it is necessary to install irace first, but can we tune the problem parameters with algorithms with jMetal from eclipse? If there is a document with the basic steps I would appreciate it
I have consulted and the paper "Automatic Configuration of NSGA-II with jMetal and irace" and the irace manual, but I need
the general concept of the operation of the tool and basic steps and since I have no prior knowledge of Irace.
Thanks in advance.
There is a documentation page about this matter: https://jmetal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/autoconfiguration.html
Please, feel free to contact me if something is not clear or you have any suggestion.
