This chapter presents a hybrid optimization algorithm namely FOA-FA for solving single and multi-objective optimization problems. The proposed algorithm integrates the benefits of the fruit fly optimization algorithm (FOA) and the firefly algorithm (FA) to avoid the entrapment in the local optima and the premature convergence of the population. FOA operates in the direction of seeking the optimum solution while the firefly algorithm (FA) has been used to accelerate the optimum seeking process and speed up the convergence performance to the global solution. Further, the multi-objective optimization problem is scalarized to a single objective problem by weighting method, where the proposed algorithm is implemented to derive the non-inferior solutions that are in contrast to the optimal solution. Finally, the proposed FOA-FA algorithm is tested on different benchmark problems whether single or multi-objective aspects and two engineering applications. The numerical comparisons reveal the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

When solving multi-objective optimization problems, an important issue is how to promote convergence and distribution simultaneously. To address the above issue, a novel optimization algorithm, named as multi-objective modified teaching-learning-based optimization (MOMTLBO), is proposed. Firstly, a grouping teaching strategy based on pareto dominance relationship is proposed to strengthen the convergence efficiency. Afterward, a diversified learning strategy is presented to enhance the distribution. Meanwhile, differential operations are incorporated to the proposed algorithm. By the above process, the search ability of the algorithm can be encouraged. Additionally, a set of well-known benchmark test functions including ten complex problems proposed for CEC2009 is used to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm. The results show that MOMTLBO exhibits competitive performance against other comparison algorithms. Finally, the proposed algorithm is applied to the aerodynamic optimization of airfoils.

The standard covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES) is highly effective at locating a single global optimum. However, it shows unsatisfactory performance for solving multimodal optimization problems (MMOPs). In this paper, an improved algorithm based on the MA-ES, which is called the matrix adaptation evolution strategy with multi-objective optimization algorithm, is proposed to solve multimodal optimization problems (MA-ESN-MO). Taking advantage of the multi-objective optimization in maintaining population diversity, MA-ESN-MO transforms an MMOP into a bi-objective optimization problem. The archive is employed to save better solutions for improving the convergence of the algorithm. Moreover, the peaks found by the algorithm can be maintained until the end of the run. Multiple subpopulations are used to explore and exploit in parallel to find multiple optimal solutions for the given problem. Experimental results on CEC2013 test problems show that the covariance matrix adaptation with Niching and the multi-objective optimization algorithm (CMA-NMO), CMA Niching with the Mahalanobis Metric and the multi-objective optimization algorithm (CMA-NMM-MO), and matrix adaptation evolution strategy Niching with the multi-objective optimization algorithm (MA-ESN-MO) have overall better performance compared with the covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES), matrix adaptation evolution strategy (MA-ES), CMA Niching (CMA-N), CMA-ES Niching with Mahalanobis Metric (CMA-NMM), and MA-ES-Niching (MA-ESN).

This paper proposes an extension of the Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) to multi-objective optimization problems. The new algorithm, called Non-dominated Sorting GSA (NSGSA), utilizes the non-dominated sorting concept to update the gravitational acceleration of the particles. An external archive is also used to store the Pareto optimal solutions and to provide some elitism. It also guides the search toward the non-crowding and the extreme regions of the Pareto front. A new criterion is proposed to update the external archive and two new mutation operators are also proposed to promote the diversity within the swarm. Numerical results show that NSGSA can obtain comparable and even better performances as compared to the previous multi-objective variant of GSA and some other multi-objective optimization algorithms.
