Abstract
When designing effective parameter tuning and/or self-adaptive mechanisms for meta-heuristic optimizers, any insights about the configuration process and its associated landscape are of great benefit. Recently, the parameter configuration landscape (PCL) was proposed as a mechanism to formally study and characterize the landscape induced by the control parameter values of meta-heuristic search techniques. As an extension, the use of geomorphon landform types to further characterize and visualize the PCL was recently proposed. This study adopts the geomorphon classification scheme and applies it to particle swarm optimization (PSO). The methodology is applied on 20 minimization benchmark problems with various problem dimensions and swarm sizes, thereby providing deep insights into the PCL associated with PSO.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
