Multiobjective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition (MOEA/D) and an improved non-dominating sorting multiobjective genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) are two well known multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) in the field of evolutionary computation. This paper mainly reviews their hybrid versions and some other state-of-the-art EAs that are very recently developed for solving different types of multiobjective search and optimization problems .

Comprehensive Survey of the Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithms

International Journal of Applied Evolutionary Computation, 2013

Multiobjective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition (MOEA/D) and an improved non-dominating sorting multiobjective genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is two well known multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) in the field of evolutionary computation. This paper mainly reviews their hybrid versions and some other algorithms which are developed for solving multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs. The mathematical formulation of a MOP and some basic definitions for tackling MOPs, including Pareto optimality, Pareto optimal set (PS), Pareto front (PF) are provided in Section 1. Section 2 presents a brief introduction to hybrid MOEAs. The authors present literature review in subsections. Subsection 2.1 provides memetic multiobjective evolutionary algorithms. Subsection 2.2 presents the hybrid versions of well-known Pareto dominance based MOEAs. Subsection 2.4 summarizes some enhanced Versions of MOEA/D paradigm. Subsection 2.5 reviews some multimethod search approaches dealing...

A New Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithm Based on Decomposition of the Objective Space for Multiobjective Optimization

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2014

In order to well maintain the diversity of obtained solutions, a new multiobjective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition of the objective space for multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs) is designed. In order to achieve the goal, the objective space of a MOP is decomposed into a set of subobjective spaces by a set of direction vectors. In the evolutionary process, each subobjective space has a solution, even if it is not a Pareto optimal solution. In such a way, the diversity of obtained solutions can be maintained, which is critical for solving some MOPs. In addition, if a solution is dominated by other solutions, the solution can generate more new solutions than those solutions, which makes the solution of each subobjective space converge to the optimal solutions as far as possible. Experimental studies have been conducted to compare this proposed algorithm with classic MOEA/D and NSGAII. Simulation results on six multiobjective benchmark functions show that the prop...
