In almost no other field of computer science, the idea of using bio-inspired search paradigms has been so useful as in solving multiobjective optimization problems. The idea of using a population of search agents that collectively approximate the Pareto front resonates well with processes in natural evolution, immune…

Balancing convergence and diversity has become a key point especially in many-objective optimization where the large numbers of objectives pose many challenges to the evolutionary algorithms. In this paper, an opposition-based evolutionary algorithm with the adaptive clustering mechanism is proposed for solving the…

As is known, the Pareto set of a continuous multiobjective optimization problem with m objective functions is a piecewise continuous (m − 1)-dimensional manifold in the decision space under some mild conditions. However, how to utilize the regularity to design multiobjective optimization algorithms has become the…

'Qiaoyong Jiang'] A novel hybrid multiobjective algorithm is presented in this paper, which combines a new multiobjective estimation of distribution algorithm, an efficient local searcher and ε-dominance. Besides, two multiobjective problems with variable linkages strictly based on manifold distribution are proposed.…

It has been widely observed that there exists no universal best Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) dominating all other MOEAs on all possible Multi-objective Optimization Problems (MOPs). In this work, we advocate using the Parallel Algorithm Portfolio (PAP), which runs multiple MOEAs independently in…

Although the integrated model has good convergence ability, it is difficult to solve the multimodal problem and noisy problem due to the lack of uncertainty evaluation. Radial basis function model performs best for different degrees of nonlinear problems with small-scale and noisy training datasets but is insensitive…

How to maintain the population diversity is an important issue in designing a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm. This paper presents an enhanced nondominated neighbor-based immune algorithm in which a multipopulation coevolutionary strategy is introduced for improving the population diversity. In the proposed…

A large space of chemicals with broad industrial and consumer applications could be synthesized by engineered microbial biocatalysts. However, the current strain optimization process is prohibitively laborious and costly to produce one target chemical and often requires new engineering efforts to produce new molecules.…

The major difficulty in Multi-objective Optimization Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEAs) is how to find an appropriate solution that is able to converge towards the true Pareto Front with high diversity. Most existing methodologies, which have demonstrated their niche on various practical problems involving two and three…

—In this article we provide a comprehensive review of the different evolutionary algorithm techniques used to address multimodal optimization problems, classifying them according to the nature of their approach. On the one hand there are algorithms that address the issue of the early convergence to a local optimum by…

Nature-inspired computing has attracted huge attention since its origin, especially in the field of multiobjective optimization. This paper proposes a disruption-based multiobjective equilibrium optimization algorithm (DMOEOA). A novel mutation operator named layered disruption method is integrated into the proposed…

In this paper, we propose a parallel multiobjective evolutionary algorithm called Parallel Criterion-based Partitioning MOEA (PCPMOEA), with an application to the Mutliobjective Knapsack Problem (MOKP). The suggested search strategy is based on a periodic partitioning of potentially efficient solutions, which are…

—The study of semantics in Genetic Program (GP) deals with the behaviour of a program given a set of inputs and has been widely reported in helping to promote diversity in GP for a range of complex problems ultimately improving evolutionary search. The vast majority of these studies have focused their attention in…

The development of automated high-throughput experimental platforms has enabled fast sampling of high-dimensional decision spaces. To reach target properties efficiently, these platforms are increasingly paired with intelligent experimental design. When solving optimization problems, Bayesian-based optimizers are often…

With recent methodological advances in the field of computational protein design, in particular those based on deep learning, there is an increasing need for frameworks that allow for coherent, direct integration of different models and objective functions into the generative design process. Here we demonstrate how…

Ensemble modeling is a well established approach for obtaining robust predictions and for simulating course grained population behavior in deterministic mathematical models. In this study, we present a multiobjective based technique to estimate model ensembles, the Pareto Optimal Ensemble Technique in the Julia…

When dealing with continuous single-objective problems, multimodality poses one of the biggest difficulties for global optimization. Local optima are often preventing algorithms from making progress and thus pose a severe threat. In this paper we analyze how single-objective optimization can benefit from…

Computer-assisted design of small molecules has experienced a resurgence in academic and indus- trial interest due to the widespread use of data-driven techniques such as deep generative models. While the ability to generate molecules that fulfill required chemical properties is encouraging, the use of deep learning…

Multi-objective optimisation is regarded as one of the most promising ways for dealing with constrained optimisation problems in evolutionary optimisation. This paper presents a theoretical investigation of a multi-objective optimisation evolutionary algorithm for solving the 0-1 knapsack problem. Two initialisation…

The alignment among three or more nucleotides/amino-acids sequences at the same time is known as Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA), an NP-hard optimization problem. The time complexity of finding an optimal alignment raises exponentially when the number of sequences to align increases. In this work, we deal with a…

Multi-objective Bayesian optimization (MOBO) has shown to be a promising tool for reaction development. However, noise is usually unavoidable during experiments and makes it challenging to find reliable solutions. In this study, we focus on finding a set of optimal reaction conditions using multi-objective Euclidian…

Directed microbial evolution harnesses evolutionary processes in the laboratory to construct microorganisms with enhanced or novel functional traits. Attempting to direct evolutionary processes for applied goals is fundamental to evolutionary computation, which harnesses the principles of Darwinian evolution as a…

Optimizing the synthesis conditions of advanced materials is challenging, especially when outcomes are subject to inherent experimental uncertainties. Bayesian optimization is a popular tool for accelerating materials discovery, but its standard risk-neutral framework overlooks the variability of outcomes under…

In this work, we demonstrate the superior exploration capabilities of the population-based methods over the sequential one-parameter parabolic interpolation (SOPPI) approach to optimise ReaxFF force field parameters. Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are heuristic-based approaches using a population of concurrent models in…
