Abstract

En 中文
Weighted optimization framework (WOF) achieves variable dimensionality reduction by grouping variables and optimizing weights, playing an important role in large-scale multi-objective optimization problems. However, because of possible problems such as duplicate weight vectors in the selection process and loss of population diversity, the algorithm is susceptible to local optimization. Therefore, this paper develops an algorithm framework called multi-population multi-stage adaptive weighted optimization (MPSOF) to improve the performance of WOF in two aspects. First, the method of using multi-population is employed to address the issue of insufficient algorithmic diversity, while simultaneously reducing the likelihood of converging towards local optima. Secondly, a processing stage is incorporated into MPSOF, where a certain number of individuals are adaptively selected for updating based on the weight information and evolutionary status of different subpopulations, targeting different types of weights. This approach alleviates the impact of repetitive weights on the diversity of newly generated individuals, avoids the drawback of easily converging to local optima when using a single type of weight for updating, and effectively balances the diversity and convergence of subpopulations. Experiments of three types designed on several typical function sets demonstrate that MPSOF exceeds the comparison algorithms in the three metrics for Inverse Generation Distance, Hypervolume and Spacing.
