Shrnutí:Many transportation system problems can be formulated as high-dimensional expensive multi-objective problems. They are challenging for Gaussian process-based Bayesian optimization methods to find the Pareto fronts due to the curse of dimensionality and the boundary issue in the acquisition function optimization. This paper presents a multi-objective Bayesian optimization method with block coordinate updates, Block-MOBO, to solve high-dimensional expensive multi-objective problems. Block-MOBO first partitions the decision variable space into different blocks, each of which includes a low-dimensional multi-objective problem. At each iteration, one block is considered and the decision variables not in this block are approximated by context-vector generation embedded with the Pareto prior knowledge thus promoting convergence. To tackle the boundary issue, we present <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">\epsilon</tex-math> </inline-formula>-greedy acquisition function in a Bayesian and multi-objective fashion, which recommends candidates either from the exploitation-exploration trade-off perspective or with probability <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">\epsilon</tex-math> </inline-formula> from the Pareto dominance relationship perspective. We verify the effectiveness of Block-MOBO by comparing it with other multi-objective Bayesian methods on two real-world optimization problems in transportation system and three multi-objective synthetic test suites. The experimental results show that Block-MOBO can find more evenly distributed and non-dominated solutions in the whole search space with lower complexity compared with other state-of-the-art approaches. Our analyses illustrate that block coordinate updates and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">\epsilon</tex-math> </inline-formula>-greedy acquisition function contribute to computational complexity reduction and convergence-diversity trade-offs, respectively.
