ERT.csv: a data frame with columns DIM (5D or 20D), funcId (F1-24), algId (algorithm names), target (\(10^{\{-8,-7, \ldots, 1\}}\)), ERT (expected running time), and sd (standard deviation). raw-data.csv: the running time recorded in each independent run. analysis.R: the R script that generates ERT tables in the paper. ecdf.R: the R script that renders the ECDF (empirical cumulative distribution function) plots in the paper.
