Zusammenfassung:Multiobjective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition (MOEA/D) has attracted a lot of attention since it can handle multiobjective problems (MOP) with a complicated Pareto front. The procedure involves decomposing a MOP into single subproblems, which are eventually optimized simultaneously based on the MOP neighborhood information. However, the MOEA/D strategy tends to produce a distributed optimization that is not of good quality in some problems with complex Pareto optimal front, such as problems with a long tail and sharp peak, common in real-world situations. This paper proposes an improved MOEA/D to enhance the distributed optimization quality and minimize its complexity while accelerating the optimization to get a better solution. The improved method is achieved by incorporating a Hybrid Differential Evolution/Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm and a hybrid operator based on nondominated sorting and crowding distance algorithm. This incorporation takes place in the mutation generator and initial population part of the original MOEA/D algorithm. Simulations and comparisons are carried out based on some MOP benchmark functions to verify the proposed method’s performance. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better performance compared to other algorithms. Furthermore, the proposed method is also applied to optimize the multiobjective wave energy converter model to maximize power per year and minimize cost per unit power.
