1.1.3

New features

• Reorganization of the html output
• New structure of archive files, written by the bi-objective logger, to create more but smaller files.
• The values rldDimsOfInterest and tabDimsOfInterest now affect also the figures/tables in html (issue #1045).

Important bug fixes

• #1056/#1060: crash when postprocessing two algorithms

Other changes

• Improved continuous integration tests for postprocessing to cover the previous undetected bug #1056/#1060.

1.1.2

New features

• multiple algorithm LaTeX template for the bbob-biobj test suite should now also work with two algorithms
• entry point for html output is now index.html
• cleaner, more consistent, and more informative output when running postprocessing

Important bug fixes

• comparing more than 7 bbob-biobj data sets works again (see #1044)
• fixed broken link in html output

Other changes

• BibTeX file now up-to-date with the COCO documentation on arXiv
• known issue with missing packages under linux mentioned in README.md
• support for noisy bbob test bed in postprocessing
• cleaner handling of benchmarkshortinfos

1.1.1

New feature

• LaTeX template for 3+ algorithms and the bbob-biobj test suite.

Important bug fixes

• Fixed broken link in html output.
• Corrected wrong caption regarding Bonferroni correction in many-algorithm template.

Other changes

• First attempts towards a more general handling of testbeds in the postprocessing (e.g. testbed settings are extracted to a single file now).
• ERT in LaTeX templates changed to aRT according to new documentation.

1.1

Version for producing the camera-ready BBOB-2016 papers.

Changes and new features

• first complete version of newly rewritten COCO documentation
• BibTeX entries for LaTeX templates updated

Known issues

see issue tracker

1.0.4

Important Change

• Reverted change in hypervolume reference values of release 1.0.3 to be consistent with BBOB-2016 experiments done with the 1.0 release

Bug fixes & Refactoring

• improved handling of testbeds for later additions of new testbeds
• best_algorithm_filename now exposed to genericsettings.py
• refactoring in html output of postprocessing
• new verify-postprocessing in do.py to check whether html captions need to be updated

1.0.3

Changes and new features

• Updated the hypervolume reference values for 40D and instances 1-5 for the bbob-biobj setting.
• Different data handling in (internal) archive update
• COCO version number should now be written correctly to the plots when an official release is used

Bug fixes

• Fixed a const cha conversion error for the g++ compiler.
• Fix to be able to handle data sets from the bbob-noisy test suite
• Fixed postprocessing for comparing algorithm data sets with varying sets of dimensions

1.0.2

Small improvements

• user handling of postprocessing code more robust, see for example #625

Bug fixes

• clean-ups in table and figure captions
• clean-ups in HTML output
• precision problem in non-dominated sorting fixed

1.0.1

Minor release, fixing some bugs.

Bug fixes

• unsupported double quotes in Matlab replaced by single quotes
• --omit-single option did not work

Thanks to Duc Manh Nguyen and Ilya Loshchilov for reporting the bugs.

Other

• BibTeX file updated

1.0

First release with complete functionality for the BBOB-2016 workshop.

Changes and new features

• region of interest of the biobjective test suite increased from [-5, 5]^D to [-100, 100]^D
• improved reference sets for the bi-objective experiments of BBOB-2016
• full postprocessing including LaTeX template for displaying single algorithm performances on the biobjective test suite
• output for timing experiment added in all languages
• updated documentation
• improved Matlab API
• new ECDF figures for subgroups and correct markers and colors in postprocessing
• postprocessing made slightly quicker by producing less figures

Bug fixes

• postprocessing is now reading in (and displaying) negative target values in the bi-objective case
• correction in linear function (missing boundary handling)
• correction in Rosenbrock function (the actual bug did not affect the current test suites)
• several others, e.g. in coco_is_inf(...)
