Surgical cases assignment problem (SCAP) is among the most investigated interests in operating room planning. The studies related to the SCAP are mainly focused on the single objective optimization. To concern multiple criteria in the management, this paper reformulates a multi-objective SCAP with minimizing total operating cost and maximizing scheduled surgeries number, simultaneously. Although dozens of multi-objective methods have been introduced in recent years, these cannot be applied into the multi-objective SCAP directly considering the characteristics of the problem. To tackle the multi-objective SCAP, a problem-specified multi-objective squirrel search algorithm (MOSSA) is presented. First, a targeted single-list scheme is devised to encode individuals and an efficient decoding scheme integrating a repair strategy is proposed to construct feasible scheduling plan. Second, two simple heuristics are incorporated into the algorithm to imitate the behaviors of squirrels and improve the search ability. Third, an addition archive is employed to store the non-dominated solutions. Moreover, a DOE method is performed to investigate the influence of parameter settings. The performance of the MOSSA is assessed by a representative benchmark dataset with three different evaluating indicators. Extensive experiments and analysis results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm and the superiority over compared approaches in addressing the multi-objective SCAP.
