Multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm based on objective space division for the unequal-area facility layout problem

•A model of the unequal-area facility layout problem is described.•A modified multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed.•We apply the heuristic strategy to update layout.•The gradient method is applied to execute local search.•The objective space division method is used to fi...
