Hello Everyone,
I have been asked from a reviewer to apply our metaheuristic on an industrial or a real-world problem (in addiition to the CEC benchmarks).
We are working in the continuous space of variables, with unconstrained optimization, Hence, we need some benchmarks for any industrial or real-world problems.
Could any one please help in this matter?
Thank you in advance
Hi
I can provide you with the matlab souce code of benchmarks existent in the paper below.

@ Chin-Chang Yang:
Thank you again for the link, it is exactly what I looked for, but another question may rise: is the verification of the constraints of these probles, if any, included in the blackboxed functions or should I consider them in my implementation? Since, as I mentioned above, I am working on unconstrained optimisation.
Thank you another time
Dear Amer Draa,
I also suggest you the IEEE CEC 2011 Real World Problems. Regarding unconstraint - the constraints are handled in these functions inside (as black-box), however you might get a N/A evaluation after calling fitness funcitons on some constrained unfeasible parameter sets. In my paper at SIDE 2012, I handled this one problem based on feasibility criteria (all feasible are better than infeasible, second criterion is fitness value).
There are however also some known singled Industry Challenges from GECCOs yearly competitions. You can also find several other domains of real world problems in e.g. Applied Soft Computing journal or other specific journals besides the fundamental TEVC.
Best Regards.
OR Library:
http://people.brunel.ac.uk/~mastjjb/jeb/info.html
contains a huge number of real-world optimisation problem instances.
I suggest you to look there,
best

What about molecular docking? Check the following paper, if you are interested I can provide you some scoring functions in different languagues (MATLAB, R, C...). You can also use directly AutoDock or some other molecular docking tool.

We had the same question and the reviewer suggested data from Parameter Estimation (PE) of biochemical systems, where the comparison between algorithms is done using a set of synthetic biochemical models characterized by an increasing number of dimensions in search space.
This is the reference:

If you are interested in computationally expensive problems, we have a set of real test problems available in the following link:
