A preference based multi-objective evolutionary algorithm is proposed for generating solutions in an automatically detected knee point region. It is named Automatic Preference based DI-MOEA (AP-DI-MOEA) where DI-MOEA stands for Diversity-Indicator based Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm). AP-DI-MOEA has two main characteristics: firstly, it generates the preference region automatically during the optimization; secondly, it concentrates the solution set in this preference region. Moreover, the real-world vehicle fleet maintenance scheduling optimization (VFMSO) problem is formulated, and a customized multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) is proposed to optimize maintenance schedules of vehicle fleets based on the predicted failure distribution of the components of cars. Furthermore, the customized MOEA for VFMSO is combined with AP-DI-MOEA to find maintenance schedules in the automatically generated preference region. Experimental results on multi-objective benchmark problems and our three-objective real-world application problems show that the newly proposed algorithm can generate the preference region accurately and that it can obtain better solutions in the preference region. Especially, in many cases, under the same budget, the Pareto optimal solutions obtained by AP-DI-MOEA dominate solutions obtained by MOEAs that pursue the entire Pareto front.

When solving constrained multi-objective optimization problems, an important issue is how to balance convergence, diversity and feasibility simultaneously. To address this issue, this paper proposes a parameter-free constraint handling technique, two
-archive evolutionary algorithm, for constrained multi-objective optimization. It maintains two co-evolving populations simultaneously: one, denoted as convergence archive, is the driving force to push the population toward the Pareto front; the other one, denoted as diversity archive, mainly tends to maintain the population diversity. In particular, to complement the behavior of the convergence archive and provide as much diversified information as possible, the diversity archive aims at exploring areas under-exploited by the convergence archive including the infeasible regions. To leverage the complementary effects of both archives, we develop a restricted mating selection mechanism that adaptively chooses appropriate mating parents from them according to their evolution status. Comprehensive experiments on a series of benchmark problems and a real-world case study fully demonstrate the competitiveness of our proposed algorithm, comparing to five state-of-the-art constrained evolutionary multi-objective optimizers.
Multi-objective optimization problems are ubiquitous in real-world science, engineering and design optimization problems. It is not uncommon that the objective functions are as a black box, the evaluation of which usually involve time-consuming and/o
r costly physical experiments. Data-driven evolutionary optimization can be used to search for a set of non-dominated trade-off solutions, where the expensive objective functions are approximated as a surrogate model. In this paper, we propose a framework for implementing batched data-driven evolutionary multi-objective optimization. It is so general that any off-the-shelf evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms can be applied in a plug-in manner. In particular, it has two unique components: 1) based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions, a manifold interpolation approach that explores more diversified solutions with a convergence guarantee along the manifold of the approximated Pareto-optimal set; and 2) a batch recommendation approach that reduces the computational time of the optimization process by evaluating multiple samples at a time in parallel. Experiments on 136 benchmark test problem instances with irregular Pareto-optimal front shapes against six state-of-the-art surrogate-assisted EMO algorithms fully demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our proposed framework. In particular, our proposed framework is featured with a faster convergence and a stronger resilience to various PF shapes.
Data-driven optimization has found many successful applications in the real world and received increased attention in the field of evolutionary optimization. Most existing algorithms assume that the data used for optimization is always available on a
central server for construction of surrogates. This assumption, however, may fail to hold when the data must be collected in a distributed way and is subject to privacy restrictions. This paper aims to propose a federated data-driven evolutionary multi-/many-objective optimization algorithm. To this end, we leverage federated learning for surrogate construction so that multiple clients collaboratively train a radial-basis-function-network as the global surrogate. Then a new federated acquisition function is proposed for the central server to approximate the objective values using the global surrogate and estimate the uncertainty level of the approximated objective values based on the local models. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified on a series of multi/many-objective benchmark problems by comparing it with two state-of-the-art surrogate-assisted multi-objective evolutionary algorithms.
Many-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs), especially the decomposition-based MOEAs, have attracted wide attention in recent years. Recent studies show that a well designed combination of the decomposition method and the domination method can im
prove the performance ,i.e., convergence and diversity, of a MOEA. In this paper, a novel way of combining the decomposition method and the domination method is proposed. More precisely, a set of weight vectors is employed to decompose a given many-objective optimization problem(MaOP), and a hybrid method of the penalty-based boundary intersection function and dominance is proposed to compare local solutions within a subpopulation defined by a weight vector. A MOEA based on the hybrid method is implemented and tested on problems chosen from two famous test suites, i.e., DTLZ and WFG. The experimental results show that our algorithm is very competitive in dealing with MaOPs. Subsequently, our algorithm is extended to solve constraint MaOPs, and the constrained version of our algorithm also shows good performance in terms of convergence and diversity. These reveals that using dominance locally and combining it with the decomposition method can effectively improve the performance of a MOEA.
Dynamic multi-objective optimization problems (DMOPs) remain a challenge to be settled, because of conflicting objective functions change over time. In recent years, transfer learning has been proven to be a kind of effective approach in solving DMOP
s. In this paper, a novel transfer learning based dynamic multi-objective optimization algorithm (DMOA) is proposed called regression transfer learning prediction based DMOA (RTLP-DMOA). The algorithm aims to generate an excellent initial population to accelerate the evolutionary process and improve the evolutionary performance in solving DMOPs. When an environmental change is detected, a regression transfer learning prediction model is constructed by reusing the historical population, which can predict objective values. Then, with the assistance of this prediction model, some high-quality solutions with better predicted objective values are selected as the initial population, which can improve the performance of the evolutionary process. We compare the proposed algorithm with three state-of-the-art algorithms on benchmark functions. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm can significantly enhance the performance of static multi-objective optimization algorithms and is competitive in convergence and diversity.
