Geophysical inverse problems typically involve a trade off between data misfit and some prior. Pareto curves trace the optimal trade off between these two competing aims. These curves are commonly used in problems with two-norm priors where they are plotted on a log-log scale and are known as L-curves. For other priors, such as the sparsity-promoting one norm, Pareto curves remain relatively un...

Geophysical inverse problems typically involve a tradeoff between data misfit and some prior model. Pareto curves trace the optimal trade-off between these two competing aims. These curves are used commonly in problems with two-norm priors in which they are plotted on a log-log scale and are known as L-curves. For other priors, such as the sparsity-promoting one-norm prior, Pareto curves remain...

Selecting a set of alternatives based on the preferences of agents is an important problem in committee selection and beyond. Among the various criteria put forth for desirability of a committee, Pareto optimality is a minimal and important requirement. As asking agents to specify their preferences over exponentially many subsets of alternatives is practically infeasible, we assume that each ag...

The game-theoretic view of control system design for multi-loop systems is extended in this work to ensure a closed-loop system with robust stability. The control system design is modeled as a differential cooperative game to incorporate interactions between the multiple loops of the control system. A robust stability indicator is formulated as an additional cost function. The developed approac...

Various local search approaches have recently been applied to machine scheduling problems under multiple objectives. Their foremost consideration is the identification of the set of Pareto optimal alternatives. An important aspect of successfully solving these problems lies in the definition of an appropriate neighbourhood structure. Unclear in this context remains, how interdependencies within...

A core challenge ofMultiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEAs) is to attain evenly distributed Pareto optimal solutions along the Pareto front. In this paper, we propose a novel asymmetric Pareto-adaptive (apa) scheme for the identification of well distributed Pareto optimal solutions based on the geometrical characteristics of the Pareto front. The apa scheme applies to problem with symmetr...
