Abstract

Automatic algorithm configuration (AAC) is an increasingly critical factor in the design of efficient metaheuristics. AAC was previously successfully applied to multi-objective local search (MOLS) algorithms using offline tools. However, offline approaches are usually very expensive, draw general recommendations regarding algorithm design for a given set of instances, and does generally not allow per-instance adaptation. Online techniques for automatic algorithm control are usually applied to single-objective evolutionary algorithms. In this work we investigate the impact of including control mechanisms to MOLS algorithms on a classical bi-objective permutation flowshop scheduling problem (PFSP), and demonstrate how even simple control mechanisms can complement traditional offline configuration techniques.
