Since the suggestion of a computing procedure of multiple Pareto-optimal solutions in multi-objective optimization problems in the early Nineties, researchers have been on the look out for a procedure which is computationally fast and simultaneously capable of finding a well-converged and well-distributed set of solutions. Most multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) developed in the past decade are either good for achieving a well-distributed solutions at the expense of a large computational effort or computationally fast at the expense of achieving a not-so-good distribution of solutions. For example, although the Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm or SPEA (Zitzler and Thiele, 1999) produces a much better distribution compared to the elitist non-dominated sorting GA or NSGA-II (Deb et al., 2002a), the computational time needed to run SPEA is much greater. In this paper, we evaluate a recently-proposed steady-state MOEA (Deb et al., 2003) which was developed based on the ε-dominance concept introduced earlier (Laumanns et al., 2002) and using efficient parent and archive update strategies for achieving a well-distributed and well-converged set of solutions quickly. Based on an extensive comparative study with four other state-of-the-art MOEAs on a number of two, three, and four objective test problems, it is observed that the steady-state MOEA is a good compromise in terms of convergence near to the Pareto-optimal front, diversity of solutions, and computational time. Moreover, the ε-MOEA is a step closer towards making MOEAs pragmatic, particularly allowing a decision-maker to control the achievable accuracy in the obtained Pareto-optimal solutions.

SUMMARYA general new methodology using evolutionary algorithms viz., Elitist Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II) and Multi-objective Differential Evolution (MODE), for obtaining optimal trajectory planning of an industrial robot manipulator (PUMA 560 robot) in the presence of fixed and moving obstacles with payload constraint is presented. The problem has a multi-criterion character in which six objective functions, 32 constraints and 288 variables are considered. A cubic NURBS curve is used to define the trajectory. The average fuzzy membership function method is used to select the best optimal solution from Pareto optimal fronts. Two multi-objective performance measures namely solution spread measure and ratio of non-dominated individuals are used to evaluate the strength of Pareto optimal fronts. Two more multi-objective performance measures namely optimiser overhead and algorithm effort are used to find computational effort of the NSGA-II and MODE algorithms. The Pareto optimal fronts and results obtained from various techniques are compared and analysed. Both NSGA-II and MODE are best for this problem.

The aim of this paper is to study the production and delivery decision problem in the Manufacturer Order Fulfillment. Owing to the order fulfillment optimization condition of the manufacturer, the multi-objective optimization model of manufacturers' production and delivery has been founded. The solution of the multi-objective optimization model is also very difficult. Fast and Elitist Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA II) have been applied successfully to various test and real-world optimization problems. These population based the algorithm provide a diverse set of non-dominated solutions. The obtained non-dominated set is close to the true Pareto-optimal front. But its convergence to the true Pareto-optimal front is not guaranteed. Hence SBX is used as a local search procedure. The proposed procedure is successfully applied to a special case. The results validate that the algorithm is effective to the multi-objective optimization model.

Pultrusion is one of the most effective manufacturing processes for producing composites with constant cross-sectional profiles. This obviously makes it more attractive for both researchers and practitioners to investigate the optimum process parameters, i.e. pulling speed, power and dimensions of the heating platens, length and width of the heating die, design of the resin injection chamber, etc., to provide better understanding of the process, consequently to improve the efficiency of the process as well the product quality. Numerous simulation approaches have been presented until now. However, optimization studies had been limited with either experimental cases or determining only one objective to improve one aspect of the performance of the process. This objective is either augmented by other process related criteria or subjected to constraints which might have had the same importance of being treated as objectives. In essence, these approaches convert a true multi-objective optimization problem (MOP) into a single-objective optimization problem (SOP). This transformation obviously results in only one optimum solution and it does not support the efforts to get more out of an optimization study, such as relations between variables and objectives or constraints. In this study, an MOP considering thermo-chemical aspects of the pultrusion process (e.g. cure degree, temperatures), in which the pulling speed is maximized and the heating power is minimized simultaneously (without defining any preference between them), has been formulated. An evolutionary multi-objective optimization (EMO) algorithm, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II [Deb et al., 2002]), has been used to solve this MOP in an ideal way where the outcome is the set of multiple solutions (i.e. Pareto-optimal solutions) and each solution is theoretically an optimal solution corresponding to a particular trade-off among objectives. Following the solution process, in other words obtaining the Pareto-optimal front, a further postprocessing study has been performed to unveil some common principles existing between the variables, the objectives and the constraints either along the whole front or in some portion of it. These relationships will reveal a design philosophy not only for the improvement of the process efficiency, but also a methodology to design a pultrusion die for different operating conditions.

Abstract. A multi-objective genetic algorithm, NSGA-II, is applied to calibrate a distributed hydrological model (WetSpa) for prediction of river discharges. The goals of this study include (i) analysis of the applicability of multi-objective approach for WetSpa calibration instead of the traditional approach, i.e. the Parameter ESTimator software (PEST), and (ii) identifiability assessment of model parameters. The objective functions considered are model efficiency (Nash-Sutcliffe criterion) known to be biased for high flows, and model efficiency for logarithmic transformed discharges to emphasize low-flow values. For the multi-objective approach, Pareto-optimal parameter sets are derived, whereas for the single-objective formulation, PEST is applied to give optimal parameter sets. The two approaches are evaluated by applying the WetSpa model to predict daily discharges in the Hornad River (Slovakia) for a 10 year period (1991–2000). The results reveal that NSGA-II performs favourably well to locate Pareto optimal solutions in the parameters search space. Furthermore, identifiability analysis of the WetSpa model parameters shows that most parameters are well-identifiable. However, in order to perform an appropriate model evaluation, more efforts should be focused on improving calibration concepts and to define robust methods to quantify different sources of uncertainties involved in the calibration procedure.

This paper aims to evaluate the impact of customer allocation on the facility location in the multi-objective location problem for sustainable logistics. After a new practical multi-objective location model considering vehicle carbon emissions is introduced, the NSGA-II and SEAMO2 algorithms are employed to solve the model. Within the framework of each algorithm, three different allocation rules derived from the optimization of customer allocation based on distance, cost, and emissions are separately applied to perform the customer-to-facility assignment so as to evaluate their impacts. The results of extensive computational experiments show that the allocation rules have nearly no influence on the solution quality, and the allocation rule based on the distance has an absolute advantage of computation time. These findings will greatly help to simplify the location-allocation analysis in the multi-objective location problems.

Considering two goals of market share and location cost, this article builds a bi-objective location model. NSGA-II is utilized to acquire a Pareto non-dominated solution set. According to actual conditions such as cost constraints, decision-makers can choose solutions from non-dominated solution set. Furthermore, an approach based on Technique for Ordering Preferences by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and minimum system’s cost under set covering are used to find out two reasonable solutions from the non-dominated solution set for decision-makers.

Multi-objective competitive location problem with cooperative coverage for distance-based attractiveness is introduced in this paper. The potential facilities compete to be selected to serve all demand points which are determined by maximizing total collective attractiveness of all demand points from assigned facilities and minimizing the fixed and distance costs between all demand points and selected facilities. Facility attractiveness is represented as a coverage of the facility with full, partial and none coverage corresponding to maximum full and partial coverage radii. Cooperative coverage, which the demand point is covered by at least one facility, is also considered. The problem is formulated as a multi-objective optimization model and solution procedure based on elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms (NSGA-II) is developed. Experimental example demonstrates the best non-dominated solution sets obtained by developed solution procedure. Contributions of this paper include introducing competitive location problem with facility attractiveness as a distance-based coverage of the facility, re-categorizing facility coverage classification and developing solution procedure base upon NSGA-II.
