چکیده

The fast convergence of particle swarm algorithms can become a downside in multi-objective optimization problems when there are many local optimal fronts. In such a situation a multi-objective particle swarm algorithm may get stuck to a local Pareto optimal front. In this paper we propose a new approach in selecting leaders for the particles to follow, which in-turn will guide the algorithm towards the Pareto optimal front. The proposed algorithm uses a Differential Evolution operator to create the leaders. These leaders can successfully guide the other particles towards the Pareto optimal front for various types of test problems. This simple yet robust algorithm is effective compared with existing multi-objective particle swarm algorithms.

MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION OF ARCH DAMS USING DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION METHODS

For optimization of real-world arch dams, it is unavoidable to consider two or more conflicting objectives. This paper employs two multi-objective differential evolution algorithms (MoDE) in combination of a parallel working MATLAB-APDL code to obtain a set of Pareto solutions for optimal shape of arch dams. Full dam-reservoir interaction subjected to seismic loading is considered. A benchmark ...

A Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimizer Enhanced with a Differential Evolution Scheme

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) and differential evolution (DE) are meta-heuristics which have been found to be very successful in a wide variety of optimization tasks. The high convergence rate of PSO and the exploratory capabilities of DE make them highly viable candidates to be used for solving multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs). In previous studies that we have undertaken [2], w...
