New Dynamic Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithm with Core Estimation of Distribution

Abstract

Dynamic multiobjective optimization problem (DMOP) is a class of complex dynamic optimization problem (DOP), its widely exists in many real-world problems. Firstly, an core estimation of distribution model which used to approximately estimate the Pareto solution in the next environment is given, when a change in the environment is detected, the algorithm uses the collected information from the previous searching environments to predict the location of the Pareto solution in the next environment. Furthermore, a dynamic multiobjective optimization evolutionary algorithm with core estimation of distribution is proposed. The computer simulations are made on two dynamic multiobjective optimization problems, and the results indicate the proposed algorithm is effective.
