Selecting the right compiler optimisations has a severe impact on programs' performance. Still, the available optimisations keep increasing, and their effect depends on the specific program, making the task human intractable. Researchers…

Benchmarking is essential for developing and evaluating black-box optimization algorithms, providing a structured means to analyze their search behavior. Its effectiveness relies on carefully selected problem sets used for evaluation. To…

The emergence of heterogeneity in high-performance computing, which harnesses under one integrated system several platforms of different architectures, also led to the development of innovative cross-platform programming models. Along with…

Benchmarks in the utility function have various interpretations, including performance guarantees and risk constraints in fund contracts and reference levels in cumulative prospect theory. In most literature, benchmarks are a deterministic…

This article highlights how small modifications to either the source code of a benchmark program or the compilation options may impact its behavior on a specific machine. It argues that for evaluating machines, benchmark providers and users…

This document provides a brief overview of different metrics and terminology that is used to measure the performance of binary classification systems.

Understanding the quality of a performance evaluation metric is crucial for ensuring that model outputs align with human preferences. However, it remains unclear how well each metric captures the diverse aspects of these preferences, as…

The performance of optimizers, particularly in deep learning, depends considerably on their chosen hyperparameter configuration. The efficacy of optimizers is often studied under near-optimal problem-specific hyperparameters, and finding…

The fragmented landscape of quantum computer benchmarks, characterized by system-specific tools and inconsistent evaluation methodologies, hinders reliable cross-platform performance assessment. We introduce Metriq, an open-source…

By virtue of its great utility in solving real-world problems, optimization modeling has been widely employed for optimal decision-making across various sectors, but it requires substantial expertise from operations research professionals.…
