Multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs) need to be solved in real world recently. In this paper, a multi-objective particle swarm optimization based on Pareto set and aggregation approach was proposed to deal with MOPs. Firstly, velocities and positions were updated similar to PSO. Then, global-best set was defined in particle swarm optimizer to preserve Pareto-based set obtained by the population. Specifically, a hybrid updating strategy based on Pareto set and aggregation approach was introduced to update the global-best set and local search was carried on global-best set. Thirdly, personal-best positions were updated in decomposition way, and global-best position was selected from global-best set. Finally, ZDT instances and DTLZ instances were selected to evaluate the performance of MULPSO and the results show validity of the proposed algorithm for MOPs.

Facing energy shortage and severe environmental pollution, manufacturing companies need to urgently energy consumption, make rational use of resources and improve economic benefits. This paper formulates a multi-objective optimization model for lathe turning operations which aims to simultaneously minimize energy consumption, machining cost and cutting time. A dynamic multi-swarm particle swarm optimizer (DMS-PSO) is proposed to solve the formulation. A case study is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The results show that the DMS-PSO approach can ensure good convergence and diversity of the solution set. Additionally, the optimal machining parameters are identified by fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE) and compared with empirical parameters. It is discovered that the optimal parameters obtained from the proposed algorithm outperform the empirical parameters in all three objectives. The research findings shed new light on energy conservation of machining operations.

Transfer learning methods exploit similarities between different datasets to improve the performance of the target task by transferring knowledge from source tasks to the target task. “What to transfer” is a main research issue in transfer learning. The existing transfer learning method generally needs to acquire the shared parameters by integrating human knowledge. However, in many real applications, an understanding of which parameters can be shared is unknown beforehand. Transfer learning model is essentially a special multi-objective optimization problem. Consequently, this paper proposes a novel auto-sharing parameter technique for transfer learning based on multi-objective optimization and solves the optimization problem by using a multi-swarm particle swarm optimizer. Each task objective is simultaneously optimized by a sub-swarm. The current best particle from the sub-swarm of the target task is used to guide the search of particles of the source tasks and vice versa. The target task and source task are jointly solved by sharing the information of the best particle, which works as an inductive bias. Experiments are carried out to evaluate the proposed algorithm on several synthetic data sets and two real-world data sets of a school data set and a landmine data set, which show that the proposed algorithm is effective.
