We focus on analyzing the impact of operations of a proposed Vegetation evolution (VEGE) algorithm on its performance rather than compare it with other EC algorithms, i.e., investigate the impact of each component of the VEGE algorithm on its performance. To further analyze the performance of VEGE algorithm, we design a series of controlled experiments to investigate the contribution of each VEGE component by running them on 28 benchmark functions of 3 different dimensions. Subsequently, we summarize some our experiences on setting VEGE parameters to apply the VEGE to optimization tasks. The experimental results reveal that the maturity operation has a critical impact on performance and the number of growth operations of an individual is set as small as possible, while the number of generated seed individuals is not an important factor. Besides, we discover that population size should be gradually increased as the dimension increases. Finally, we point out several potential research directions.
