When comparing two optimization methods on a function, should we use a two sample t-test or a paired t-test? I would say we should use the latter since paired t-test is used for correlated observations and in our case we can consider the unit of observation to be the function and the two methods as two treatments. Am I right?
Thank you in advance
these tests is suitable for nearly obtained solutions in comparing EAs, I suggest you that employ RDI and RPD and Average best solution, and ... to compare EAs.
