dc.description.abstract | Convergence and diversity are two main goals in multiobjective optimization. In literature, most existing multiobjective optimization evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) adopt a convergence-first-and-diversity-second environmental selection which prefers nondominated solutions to dominated ones, as is the case with the popular nondominated sorting based selection method. While convergence-first sorting has continuously shown effectiveness for handling a variety of problems, it faces challenges to maintain well population diversity due to the overemphasis of convergence. In this paper, we propose a general diversity-first sorting method for multiobjective optimization. Based on the method, a new MOEA, called DBEA, is then introduced. DBEA is compared with the recently-developed nondominated sorting genetic algorithm III (NSGA-III) on different problems. Experimental studies show that the diversity-first method has great potential for diversity maintenance and is very competitive for many-objective optimization. | en |
