MOPED: A Multi-objective Parzen-Based Estimation of Distribution Algorithm for Continuous Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
An evolutionary multi-objective optimization tool based on an estimation of distribution algorithm is proposed. The algorithm uses the ranking method of non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II and the Parzen estimator to approximate the probability density of solutions lying on the Pareto front. The proposed algorithm has been applied to different types of test case problems and results show good performance of the overall optimization procedure in terms of the number of function evaluations. An alternative spreading technique that uses the Parzen estimator in the objective function space is proposed as well. When this technique is used, achieved results appear to be qualitatively equivalent to those previously obtained by adopting the crowding distance described in non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II.

متن کاملAn Adapted Non-dominated Sorting Algorithm (ANSA) for Solving Multi Objective Trip Distribution Problem
Trip distribution deals with estimation of trips distributed among origins and destinations and is one of the important stages in transportation planning. Since in the real world, trip distribution models often have more than one objective, multi-objective models are developed to cope with a set of conflict goals in this area. In a proposed method of adapted non-dominated sorting algorithm (ANS...
