Abstract

En 中文
Multitasking optimization (MTO), addressing multiple optimization problems synchronously, has achieved significant success in the field of evolutionary computation. However, in practice, few tasks are accomplished synchronously due to asynchronous initialization. In this article, an asynchronous MTO (AMTO) paradigm is proposed, which aims to deal with multiple optimization problems with asynchronous arrivals. Due to the asynchronous characteristic of tasks, there is multiple tenses knowledge in an AMTO environment. Transferring multitense knowledge may accelerate the optimization process of the target task. Also, an AMTO algorithm is proposed to transfer multitense knowledge. The past-tense knowledge is transferred by an initialization strategy, which selects effective knowledge to deal with mismatched tenses. And the present-tense knowledge is transferred by knowledge reuse, which aligns convergence intervals to handle mismatched evolutionary states. Finally, several AMTO test problem sets and a practical problem are designed to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results show that the performance of the algorithm can be improved by multitense knowledge transfer.
