Abstract: Existing global optimization benchmark suites are of a moderate size and are based on a small number of analytical functions that date back even to the 1970s. This causes a risk of biasing the development of global optimization methods. We argue that the tasks related to the black-box adversarial attack (BBAA) can serve as valuable global optimization benchmark in many-dimensional space. We demonstrate the efficiency of several types of evolutionary algorithms and other metaheuristics in solving example BBAA problems. Thus, we take a step towards convergence of global optimization methods to the challenges and needs that arise in the modern machine learning field.
