In practical multi-criterion decision-making, it is cumbersome if a decision maker (DM) is asked to choose among a set of trade-off alternatives covering the whole Pareto-optimal front. This is a paradox in conventional evolutionary…
Multiobjective optimization (MOO) is prevalent in numerous applications, in which a Pareto front (PF) is constructed to display optima under various preferences. Previous methods commonly utilize the set of Pareto objectives (particles on…
