Abstract

En 中文
Constrained multi-objective optimization problems widely exist in real-world applications, yet remain challenging due to the coexistence of multiple conflicting objectives and constraints. This study proposes a two-archive constrained multi-objective optimization algorithm with two-stage weak cooperation, named BWC-TAA. First, based on the two-archive framework, a weak cooperation interaction mechanism is designed, in which the CA and DA evolve independently. They only merge offspring during the update stage to select high-quality individuals, thereby preventing solutions from being confined to the parent population range. Second, a two-stage evolutionary strategy is introduced to dynamically adjust the optimization objectives, enabling CA and DA to adopt different strategies in different phases. Finally, BWC-TAA is evaluated on benchmark constrained problems against eight state-of-the-art algorithms. The experimental results demonstrate that BWC-TAA significantly outperforms the compared algorithms in terms of convergence and diversity indicators.
