Over the last few decades, many different variants of Genetic Algorithms (GAs) have been introduced for solving Constrained Optimization Problems (COPs). However, a comparative study of their performances is rare. In this paper, our objective is to analyze different variants of GA and compare their performances by solving the 36 CEC benchmark problems by using, a new scoring scheme introduced in this paper and, a nonparametric test procedure. The insights gain in this study will help researchers and practitioners to decide which variant to use for their problems.
