Many-objective BAT algorithm

Multi-objective Bat Algorithm for Mining Interesting Association Rules

Association rule mining problem attracts the attention of researchers inasmuch to its importance and applications in our world with the fast growth of the stored data. Association rule mining process is computationally very expensive because rules number grows exponentially as items number in the database increases. However, Association rule mining is more complex when we introduce the quality ...

Weight-based Fish School Search algorithm for Many-Objective Optimization

Optimization problems with more than one objective consist in a very attractive topic for researchers due to its applicability in real-world situations. Over the years, the research effort in the Computational Intelligence field resulted in algorithms able to achieve good results by solving problems with more than one conflicting objective. However, these techniques do not exhibit the same perf...

Evolutionary Many-Objective Optimization Based on Kuhn-Munkres' Algorithm

In this paper, we propose a new multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA), which transforms a multi-objective optimization problem into a linear assignment problem using a set of weight vectors uniformly scattered. Our approach adopts uniform design to obtain the set of weights and Kuhn-Munkres’ (Hungarian) algorithm to solve the assignment problem. Differential evolution is used as our sea...

A Predictive Pareto Dominance Based Algorithm for Many-Objective Problems

1. Abstract Multiobjective genetic algorithms (MOGAs) have successfully been used on a wide range of real world problems. However, it is generally accepted that the performance of most state-of-the-art multiobjective genetic algorithms tend to perform poorly for problems with more than four objectives, termed many-objective problems. The contribution of this paper is a new approach for identify...
