Molecular docking is an essential tool for drug design. It helps the scientist to rapidly know if two molecules, respectively called ligand and receptor, can be combined together to obtain a stable complex. We propose a new multi-objective model combining an energy term and a surface term to gain such complexes. The aim of our model is to provide complexes with a low energy and low surface. This model has been validated with two multi-objective genetic algorithms on instances from the literature dedicated to the docking benchmarking.
