Abstract

We provide a comprehensive, effective and very efficient methodology for the design and experimental analysis of algorithms.
We rely on modern statistical techniques for tuning and understanding algorithms
from an experimental perspective. Therefore, we make use of the sequential parameter optimization (SPO) method that has been successfully applied as a tuning procedure to numerous heuristics for practical and theoretical
optimization problems.
Two case studies, which illustrate the applicability of SPO to algorithm tuning
and model selection, are presented.
