Recently, increasing works have proposed to drive evolutionary algorithms using machine learning models. Usually, the performance of such model based evolutionary algorithms is highly dependent on the training qualities of the adopted models. Since it usually requires a certain amount of data (i.e. the candidate solutions generated by the algorithms) for model training, the performance deteriorates rapidly with the increase of the problem scales, due to the curse of dimensionality. To address this issue, we propose a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm driven by the generative adversarial networks (GANs). At each generation of the proposed algorithm, the parent solutions are first classified into real and fake samples to train the GANs; then the offspring solutions are sampled by the trained GANs. Thanks to the powerful generative ability of the GANs, our proposed algorithm is capable of generating promising offspring solutions in high-dimensional decision space with limited training data. The proposed algorithm is tested on 10 benchmark problems with up to 200 decision variables. Experimental results on these test problems demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Subset selection is an important component in evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) algorithms. Clustering, as a classic method to group similar data points together, has been used for subset selection in some fields. However, clustering-bas ed methods have not been evaluated in the context of subset selection from solution sets obtained by EMO algorithms. In this paper, we first review some classic clustering algorithms. We also point out that another popular subset selection method, i.e., inverted generational distance (IGD)-based subset selection, can be viewed as clustering. Then, we perform a comprehensive experimental study to evaluate the performance of various clustering algorithms in different scenarios. Experimental results are analyzed in detail, and some suggestions about the use of clustering algorithms for subset selection are derived. Additionally, we demonstrate that decision makers preference can be introduced to clustering-based subset selection.
Learning-based heuristics for solving combinatorial optimization problems has recently attracted much academic attention. While most of the existing works only consider the single objective problem with simple constraints, many real-world problems ha ve the multiobjective perspective and contain a rich set of constraints. This paper proposes a multiobjective deep reinforcement learning with evolutionary learning algorithm for a typical complex problem called the multiobjective vehicle routing problem with time windows (MO-VRPTW). In the proposed algorithm, the decomposition strategy is applied to generate subproblems for a set of attention models. The comprehensive context information is introduced to further enhance the attention models. The evolutionary learning is also employed to fine-tune the parameters of the models. The experimental results on MO-VRPTW instances demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm over other learning-based and iterative-based approaches.
In this paper, a novel framework is proposed to perform data-driven air-to-ground (A2G) channel estimation for millimeter wave (mmWave) communications in an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) wireless network. First, an effective channel estimation approa ch is developed to collect mmWave channel information, allowing each UAV to train a stand-alone channel model via a conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) along each beamforming direction. Next, in order to expand the application scenarios of the trained channel model into a broader spatial-temporal domain, a cooperative framework, based on a distributed CGAN architecture, is developed, allowing each UAV to collaboratively learn the mmWave channel distribution in a fully-distributed manner. To guarantee an efficient learning process, necessary and sufficient conditions for the optimal UAV network topology that maximizes the learning rate for cooperative channel modeling are derived, and the optimal CGAN learning solution per UAV is subsequently characterized, based on the distributed network structure. Simulation results show that the proposed distributed CGAN approach is robust to the local training error at each UAV. Meanwhile, a larger airborne network size requires more communication resources per UAV to guarantee an efficient learning rate. The results also show that, compared with a stand-alone CGAN without information sharing and two other distributed schemes, namely: A multi-discriminator CGAN and a federated CGAN method, the proposed distributed CGAN approach yields a higher modeling accuracy while learning the environment, and it achieves a larger average data rate in the online performance of UAV downlink mmWave communications.

This paper presents a novel deep learning based data-driven optimization method. A novel generative adversarial network (GAN) based data-driven distributionally robust chance constrained programming framework is proposed. GAN is applied to fully extr act distributional information from historical data in a nonparametric and unsupervised way without a priori approximation or assumption. Since GAN utilizes deep neural networks, complicated data distributions and modes can be learned, and it can model uncertainty efficiently and accurately. Distributionally robust chance constrained programming takes into consideration ambiguous probability distributions of uncertain parameters. To tackle the computational challenges, sample average approximation method is adopted, and the required data samples are generated by GAN in an end-to-end way through the differentiable networks. The proposed framework is then applied to supply chain optimization under demand uncertainty. The applicability of the proposed approach is illustrated through a county-level case study of a spatially explicit biofuel supply chain in Illinois.
