Most of the multiobjective optimization problems in engineering involve the evaluation of expensive objectives and constraint functions, for which an approximate model-based multiobjective optimization algorithm is usually employed, but requires a large amount of function evaluation. Aiming at effectively reducing the computation cost, a novel infilling point criterion EIR2 is proposed, whose basic idea is mapping a point in objective space into a set in expectation improvement space and utilizing the R2 indicator of the set to quantify the fitness of the point being selected as an infilling point. This criterion has an analytic form regardless of the number of objectives and demands lower calculation resources. Combining the Kriging model, optimal Latin hypercube sampling, and particle swarm optimization, an algorithm, EIR2-MOEA, is developed for solving expensive multiobjective optimization problems and applied to three sets of standard test functions of varying difficulty and comparing with two other competitive infill point criteria. Results show that EIR2 has higher resource utilization efficiency, and the resulting nondominated solution set possesses good convergence and diversity. By coupling with the average probability of feasibility, the EIR2 criterion is capable of dealing with expensive constrained multiobjective optimization problems and its efficiency is successfully validated in the optimal design of energy storage flywheel.

In order to solve the multiobjective optimization problems efficiently, this paper presents a hybrid multiobjective optimization algorithm which originates from invasive weed optimization (IWO) and multiobjective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition (MOEA/D), a popular framework for multiobjective optimization. IWO is a simple but powerful numerical stochastic optimization method inspired from colonizing weeds; it is very robust and well adapted to changes in the environment. Based on the smart and distinct features of IWO and MOEA/D, we introduce multiobjective invasive weed optimization algorithm based on decomposition, abbreviated as MOEA/D-IWO, and try to combine their excellent features in this hybrid algorithm. The efficiency of the algorithm both in convergence speed and optimality of results are compared with MOEA/D and some other popular multiobjective optimization algorithms through a big set of experiments on benchmark functions. Experimental results show the competitive performance of MOEA/D-IWO in solving these complicated multiobjective optimization problems.

The present paper deals with a duality study associated with a new class of multiobjective optimization problems that include the interval-valued components of the ratio vector. More precisely, by using the new notion of (ρ,ψ,d)-quasiinvexity associated with an interval-valued multiple-integral functional, we formulate and prove weak, strong, and converse duality results for the considered class of variational control problems.
