Researchers have introduced ShapeBench, a new open-source benchmark designed to standardize evaluations in aerodynamic shape optimization. This benchmark includes 103 tasks across eight shape categories, featuring validated surrogates for rapid testing and optional high-fidelity CFD pipelines for verification. ShapeBench aims to enable fair comparisons between various optimization methods, including classical, general-purpose, and LLM-driven approaches, by using a consistent budget metric and highlighting the variance in optimizer performance across different tasks.
