The task in multiobjective optimization and multiobjective optimal control is therefore to compute\r\nthe set of optimal compromises (the Pareto set) between the conflicting objectives.\r\n\r\nSince – in contrast to the solution of a single objective optimization problem – the\r\nPareto set generally consists of an infinite number of solutions, the computational\r\neffort can quickly become challenging. This is even more the case when many problems have to be solved, when the number of objectives is high, or when the objectives\r\nare costly to evaluate. Consequently, this thesis is devoted to the identification and\r\nexploitation of structure both in the Pareto set and the dynamics of the underlying\r\nmodel as well as to the development of efficient algorithms for solving problems with\r\nadditional parameters, with a high number of objectives or with PDE-constraints.\r\nThese three challenges are addressed in three respective parts.\r\n\r\nIn the first part, predictor-corrector methods are extended to entire Pareto sets.\r\nWhen certain smoothness assumptions are satisfied, then the set of parameter dependent Pareto sets possesses additional structure, i.e. it is a manifold. The tangent\r\nspace can be approximated numerically which yields a direction for the predictor\r\nstep. In the corrector step, the predicted set converges to the Pareto set at a new\r\nparameter value. The resulting algorithm is applied to an example from autonomous\r\ndriving.\r\n\r\nIn the second part, the hierarchical structure of Pareto sets is investigated. When\r\nconsidering a subset of the objectives, the resulting solution is a subset of the Pareto\r\nset of the original problem. Under additional smoothness assumptions, the respective subsets are located on the boundary of the Pareto set of the full problem. This\r\nway, the “skeleton” of a Pareto set can be computed and due to the exponential\r\nincrease in computing time with the number of objectives, the computations of\r\nthese subsets are significantly faster which is demonstrated using an example from\r\nindustrial laundries.\r\n\r\nIn the third part, PDE-constrained multiobjective optimal control problems are\r\naddressed by reduced order modeling methods. Reduced order models exploit the\r\nstructure in the system dynamics, for example by describing the dynamics of only the\r\nmost energetic modes. The model reduction introduces an error in both the function values and their gradients, which has to be taken into account in the development of\r\nalgorithms. Both scalarization and set-oriented approaches are coupled with reduced\r\norder modeling. Convergence results are presented and the numerical benefit is\r\ninvestigated. The algorithms are applied to semi-linear heat flow problems as well\r\nas to the Navier-Stokes equations.\r\n"}],"doi":"10.17619/UNIPB/1-176","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://d-nb.info/1139356542/34","open_access":"1"}],"project":[{"name":"Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing","_id":"52"}],"department":[{"_id":"101"}],"file":[{"date_updated":"2020-03-13T12:52:50Z","file_size":16636801,"creator":"speitz","file_name":"Dissertation_Peitz.pdf","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"closed","file_id":"16298","date_created":"2020-03-13T12:52:50Z","success":1}],"citation":{"short":"S.
