Abstract

En 中文
Multi -modal multi -objective problems (MMOPs) have gained much attention during the last decade. These problems have two or more global or local Pareto optimal sets (PSs), some of which map to the same Pareto front (PF). This article presents a new affinity propagation clustering (APC) method based on the Multi -modal multiobjective differential evolution (MMODE) algorithm, called MMODE_AP, for the suit of CEC'2020 benchmark functions. First, two adaptive mutation strategies are adopted to balance exploration and exploitation and improve the diversity in the evolution process. Then, the affinity propagation clustering method is adopted to define the crowding degree in decision space (DS) and objective space (OS). Meanwhile, the non -dominated sorting scheme incorporates a particular crowding distance to truncate the population during the environmental selection process, which can obtain welldistributed solutions in both DS and OS. Moreover, the local PF membership of the solution is defined, and a predefined parameter is introduced to maintain of the local PSs and solutions around the global PS. Finally, the proposed algorithm is implemented on the suit of CEC'2020 benchmark functions for comparison with some MMODE algorithms. According to the experimental study results, the proposed MMODE_AP algorithm has about 20 better performance results on benchmark functions compared to its competitors in terms of reciprocal of Pareto sets proximity (rPSP), inverted generational distances (IGD) in the decision (IGDX) and objective (IGDF). The proposed algorithm can efficiently achieve the two goals, i.e., the convergence to the true local and global Pareto fronts along with better distributed Pareto solutions on the Pareto fronts.
