BBOPlace-Bench: Benchmarking Black-Box Optimization for Chip Placement

arXiv:2510.23472v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Chip placement is a vital stage in modern chip design, and black-box optimization (BBO) has been applied to it for decades. Early BBO efforts, however, were limited by immature problem formulations and inefficient algorithm designs, leading to worse efficiency,
