报告摘要：
evolutionary computation is the study of biologically motivated computational paradigms which exert novel ideas and inspiration from natural evolution and adaptation. the applications of population-based heuristics in solving multiobjective optimization problems have been receiving a growing attention. to search for a family of pareto optimal solutions based on nature-inspiring problem-solving paradigms, evolutionary multiobjective optimization algorithms have been successfully exploited to solve optimization problems in which the fitness measures and even constraints are uncertain and changed over time.
when encounter optimization problems with many objectives, nearly all designs perform poorly because of loss of selection pressure in fitness evaluation solely based upon pareto optimality principle. this talk will first survey recently published literature along this line of research- evolutionary algorithm for many-objective optimization and its real-world applications. in addition, we will devote our attention to address three issues to complete the real-world applications at hand- visualization, performance metrics and multi-criteria decision-making for the many-objective optimization. visualization of population in a high-dimensional1 objective space throughout the evolution process presents an attractive feature that could be well exploited in designing many-objective evolutionary algorithms. a performance metric tailored specifically for many-objective optimization is also designed, preventing various artifacts of existing performance metrics violating pareto optimality principle. a minimum manhattan distance (mmd) approach to multiple criteria decision making in many-objective optimization problems is proposed. this procedure is equivalent to the knee selection described by a divide and conquer approach that involves iterations of pairwise comparisons
