A hierarchical evolutionary algorithm for multiobjective optimization in IMRT.
PURPOSE The current inverse planning methods for intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) are limited because they are not designed to explore the trade-offs between the competing objectives of tumor and normal tissues. The goal was to develop an efficient multiobjective optimization algorithm that was flexible enough to handle any form of objective function and that resulted in a set of Pa...
متن کاملA multiobjective evolutionary algorithm toolbox for computer-aided multiobjective optimization
This paper presents an interactive graphical user interface (GUI) based multiobjective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) toolbox for effective computer-aided multiobjective (MO) optimization. Without the need of aggregating multiple criteria into a compromise function, it incorporates the concept of Pareto's optimality to evolve a family of nondominated solutions distributing along the tradeoffs un...
متن کاملA Hierarchical Approach in Distributed Evolutionary Algorithms for Multiobjective Optimization
This paper presents a hierarchical and easy configurable framework for the implementation of distributed evolutionary algorithms for multiobjective optimization problems. The proposed approach is based on a layered structure corresponding to different execution environments like single computers, computing clusters and grid infrastructures. Two case studies, one based on a classical test suite ...

In this paper, interactive multiobjective optimization for radiotherapy treatment planning is studied. The aim of radiotherapy is to destroy a tumor without causing damage to healthy tissue and treatment planning is used to achieve an optimal dose distribution. In intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), the intensity of the incoming radiation flux can be modulated using some aperture such as a...
متن کاملMultiobjective Adaptive Representation Evolutionary Algorithm (MAREA) - a new evolutionary algorithm for multiobjective optimization
Many algorithms for multiobjective optimization have been proposed in the last years. In the recent past a great importance have the MOEAs able to solve problems with more than two objectives and with a large number of decision vectors (space dimensions). The difficulties occur when problems with more than three objectives (higher dimensional problems) are considered. In this paper, a new algor...
