  text: Choosing and tuning an optimization procedure for a given class of nonlinear
    optimization problems is not an easy task. One way to proceed is to consider this
    as a tournament, where each procedure will compete in different ‘disciplines’.
    Here, disciplines could either be different functions, which we want to optimize,
    or specific performance measures of the optimization procedure. We would then
    be interested in the algorithm that performs best in a majority of cases or whose
    average performance is maximal. We will focus on evolutionary multiobjective optimization
    algorithms (EMOA), and will present a novel approach to the design and analysis
    of evolutionary multiobjective benchmark experiments based on similar work from
    the context of machine learning. We focus on deriving a consensus among several
    benchmarks over different test problems and illustrate the methodology by reanalyzing
    the results of the CEC 2007 EMOA competition.

  text: Since many real-world optimization problems are noisy, vector optimization
    algorithms that can cope with noise and uncertainty are required. We propose new,
    robust selection strategies for evolutionary multi-objective optimization in the
    presence of noise. We apply new measures of uncertainty for estimating the recently
    introduced Pareto-dominance for uncertain and noisy environments (PDU). The first
    measure is the inter-quartile range of the outcomes of repeated function evaluations.
    The second is based on axis-aligned bounding boxes around the upper and lower
    quantiles of the sampled fitness values in objective space. Experiments on real
    and artificial problems show promising results.

  text: In this paper, a concept for efficiently approximating the practically relevant
    regions of the Pareto front (PF) is introduced. Instead of the original objectives,
    desirability functions (DFs) of the objectives are optimized, which express the
    preferences of the decision maker. The original problem formulation and the optimization
    algorithm do not have to be modified. DFs map an objective to the domain [0, 1]
    and nonlinearly increase with better objective quality. By means of this mapping,
    values of different objectives and units become comparable. A biased distribution
    of the solutions in the PF approximation based on different scalings of the objectives
    is prevented. Thus, we propose the integration of DFs into the S-metric selection
    evolutionary multiobjective algorithm. The transformation ensures the meaning
    of the hypervolumes internally computed. Furthermore, it is shown that the reference
    point for the hypervolume calculation can be set intuitively. The approach is
    analyzed using standard test problems. Moreover, a practical validation by means
    of the optimization of a turning process is performed.

  text: The paper presents a framework to optimise the design of work roll based on
    the cooling performance. The framework develops meta-models from a set of finite
    element analyses (FEA) of the roll cooling. A design of experiment technique is
    used to identify the FEA runs. The research also identifies sources of uncertainties
    in the design process. A robust evolutionary multi-objective evaluation technique
    is applied to the design optimisation in constrained problems with real life uncertainty.
    The approach handles uncertainties associated both with design variables and fitness
    functions. Constraints violation within the neighbourhood of a design is considered
    as part of a measurement for degree of feasibility and robustness of a solution.

    tests on a set of performance indicators. The behavior of OCD mainly depends on
    two parameters, the number of preceding generations considered in the statistical
    tests and the desired variance limit. In this paper, guidelines for selecting
    appropriate combinations of these parameters are empirically derived based on
    design-of-experiment methods. Furthermore, a variant of OCD is introduced which
    directly operates on the hypervolume indicator - the internal measure of the SMS-EMOA.
    This allows a separated analysis of the variance criterion and reduces the complexity
    of OCD. Based on the experimental design, a systematic comparison with the classical
    OCD approach is performed and differences between the appropriate parameterizations
    of both variants are highlighted.

  text: Over the last decades, evolutionary algorithms (EA) have proven their applicability
    to hard and complex industrial optimization problems in many cases. However, especially
    in cases with high computational demands for fitness evaluations (FE), the number
    of required FE is often seen as a drawback of these techniques. This is partly
    due to lacking robust and reliable methods to determine convergence, which would
    stop the algorithm before useless evaluations are carried out. To overcome this
    drawback, we define a method for online convergence detection (OCD) based on statistical
    tests, which invokes a number of performance indicators and which can be applied
    on a stand-alone basis (no predefined Pareto fronts, ideal and reference points).
    Our experiments show the general applicability of OCD by analyzing its performance
    for different algorithmic setups and on different classes of test functions. Furthermore,
    we show that the number of FE can be reduced considerably – compared to common
    suggestions from literature – without significantly deteriorating approximation
    accuracy.

  text: Noisy environments are a challenging task for multiobjective evolutionary
    algorithms. The algorithms may be trapped in local optima or even become a random
    search in the decision and objective space. In the course of the paper the classical
    definition of Pareto-dominance is enhanced subject to noisy objective functions
    in order to make the evolutionary search process more robust and to generate a
    reliable Pareto front. At each point in the decision space the objective functions
    are evaluated a fixed number of times and the convex hull of the objective function
    vectors is computed. Expectation is associated with the median of the objective
    function values while uncertainty is reflected by the average distance of the
    median in each dimension to the points defining the convex hull. By combining
    these two indicators a new concept of Pareto-dominance is set up. An implementation
    in NSGA-II and application to test problems show a gain in robustness and search
    quality.

  text: Industry applications of multiobjective optimization problems mostly are characterized
    by the demand for high quality solutions on the one hand. On the other hand an
    optimization result is desired which at any rate meets the time constraints for
    the evolutionary multiobjective algorithms (EMOA). The handling of this trade-off
    is a frequently discussed issue in multiobjective evolutionary optimization.

  text: ' In this article a method for including a priori preferences of decision
    makers into multicriteria optimization problems is presented. A set of Pareto-optimal
    solutions is determined via desirability functions of the objectives which reveal
    experts’ preferences regarding different objective regions. An application to
    noisy objective functions is not straightforward but very relevant for practical
    applications. Two approaches are introduced in order to handle the respective
    uncertainties by means of the proposed preference-based Pareto optimization. By
    applying the methods to the original and uncertain Binh problem and a noisy single
    cut turning cost optimization problem, these approaches prove to be very effective
    in focusing on different parts of the Pareto front of the ori-ginal problem in
    both certain and noisy environments. '

  text: In this paper, two approaches for estimating the generation in which a multi-objective
    evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) shows statistically significant signs of convergence
    are introduced. A set-based perspective is taken where convergence is measured
    by performance indicators. The proposed techniques fulfill the requirements of
    proper statistical assessment on the one hand and efficient optimisation for real-world
    problems on the other hand. The first approach accounts for the stochastic nature
    of the MOEA by repeating the optimisation runs for increasing generation numbers
    and analysing the performance indicators using statistical tools. This technique
    results in a very robust offline procedure. Moreover, an online convergence detection
    method is introduced as well. This method automatically stops the MOEA when either
    the variance of the performance indicators falls below a specified threshold or
    a stagnation of their overall trend is detected. Both methods are analysed and
    compared for two MOEA and on different classes of benchmark functions. It is shown
    that the methods successfully operate on all stated problems needing less function
    evaluations while preserving good approximation quality at the same time.

  text: A systematic approach for determining the generation number at which a specific
    Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) has converged for a given optimization
    problem is introduced. Convergence is measured by the performance indicators Generational
    Distance, Spread and Hypervolume. The stochastic nature of the MOEA is taken into
    account by repeated runs per generation number which results in a highly robust
    procedure. For each generation number the MOEA is repeated a fixed number of times,
    and the Kolmogorow-Smirnov-Test is used in order to decide if a significant change
    in performance is gained in comparison to preceding generations. A comparison
    of different MOEAs on a problem with respect to necessary generation numbers becomes
    possible, and the understanding of the algorithm’s behaviour is supported by analysing
    the development of the indicator values. The procedure is illustrated by means
    of standard test problems.

  text: Multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) are generally designed to
    find a well spread Pareto-front approximation. Often, only a small section of
    this front may be of practical interest. Desirability functions (DFs) are able
    to describe user preferences intuitively. Furthermore, DFs can be attached to
    any fitness function easily. This way, desirability functions can help in guiding
    MOEAs without introducing additional restrictions or changes to the algorithm.
    The application of noisy fitness functions is not straight forward but relevant
    to many real-world problems. Therefore, a variant of Harrington’s one-sided desirability
    function using expectations is introduced which takes noise into account. A deterministic
    strategy as well as the XSGA-II are used in combination with DF to solve a noisy
    Binh problem and a noisy cost estimation problem for turning processes.

  text: The concept of desirability is a means for complexity reduction of multivariate
    quality optimization. This paper provides a theoretical breakthrough regarding
    desirability indices, which application fields were formerly limited primarily
    by the lack of its distribution. Focussed are the distributions of Harrington’s
    desirability functions and different types of the desirability index.
