| Shrnutí: | This study aims to enhance economic and environmental sustainability of fisheries through fishing routing methods that can reduce operational costs, emission footprints, and incidental fishing risks. To achieve this, a novel problem definition is introduced, the time-dependent multi-objective orienteering problem with time windows and moving targets (TDMOOP-TWMT). Unlike existing fishing routing problems, the TDMOOP-TWMT allows users to define their fishing trips by setting a maximum time at sea rather than a predefined number of fishing sets. This multi-objective problem includes three goals: fuel-oil consumption, catches of tuna species, and incidental catches of non-target species (bycatch). To address this problem, the w-MOEA/D algorithm is employed, which incorporates decision-makers’ preferences using wide weight intervals for each objective, eliminating the need for precise weight values. Compared to the classical MOEA/D, the w-MOEA/D method achieves solutions closer to the true Pareto front while reducing the final solution set based on users’ preferences. To demonstrate the potential application and benefits in a real context, 12 historical routes are employed across different fishing scenarios, each defined by varying the weight intervals of the objectives. The results show that w-MOEA/D routes allow for consuming less fuel and catching more tuna, though with a higher risk of bycatch when compared to historical trips. However, prioritizing bycatch avoidance reduces this risk while maintaining similar fuel efficiency, although with a lower increase in catches. In summary, this study highlights the effectiveness of the proposed solution method in supporting fishers' decision-making by incorporating their preferences when planning fishing routes.
•Presents multi-objective fishing routing with economic and environmental goals.•Equivalent to MOO time-dependent orienteering problem with time windows and moving targets.•Utilizes user-provided weight intervals instead of precise weight values per objective.•w-MOEA/D algorithm finds solutions closer to the true Pareto Front than original MOEA/D.•Routes with lower fuel usage and trade-offs between catches and bycatch are obtained. |
