  1. NCGA : Neighborhood Cultivation Genetic Algorithm for Multi-Objective Optimization Problems ○ Shinya Watanabe Tomoyuki Hiroyasu Mitsunori Miki Intelligent Systems Design Laboratory， Doshisha University，Kyoto Japan Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  2. Multi-objective Optimization Problems ●Multi-objective Optimization Problems (MOPs) In the optimization problems, when there are several objective functions, the problems are called multi-objective or multi-criterion problems. Design variables X={x1, x2, …. , xn} Feasible region (x) f 2 Objective function Pareto optimal solutions F={f1(x), f2(x), … , fm(x)} Constraints f Gi(x)<0 ( i = 1, 2, … , k) (x) 1 Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  3. EMO • EMO Evolutionary Multi-criterion Optimization • MOPs solved by Evolutionary algorithms Typical method on EMO • VEGA:Schaffer (1985) • MOGA :Fonseca (1993) • DRMOGA :Hiroyasu, Miki, Watanabe (2000) • SPEA2 :Zitzler (2001) • NPGA2 :Erickson, Mayer, Horn (2001) • NSGA-II :Deb, Goel (2001) Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  4. Neighborhood Cultivation GA (NCGA) • NCGA : Neighborhood Cultivation GA The features of NCGA • The neighborhood crossover. • Archive of excellent solutions. • A Method which cuts down reserved excellent solutions. • Use of the reserved excellent solutions for searching solutions. • Unification mechanism of the values of each objective. Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  5. f2(x) f1(x) Neighborhood Cultivation GA (NCGA) • A neighborhood crossover • In MOPs GA, the searching area is wide and the searching area of each individual is different. If the distance between two selected parents is so large, the crossover may have no effect for local search. Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  6. f2(x) f1(x) Neighborhood Cultivation GA (NCGA) • A neighborhood crossover • Two parents in the crossover are chosen from the top of the sorted individuals. • One of the objectives is changed at each generation. • The sorting of a population includes a little probabilistic change. In order not to make the same couple, Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  7. Neighborhood Cultivation GA (NCGA) • The differences from the recent major algorithms like SPEA2 and NSGA-II. • NCGA has the neighborhood crossover mechanism. • NCGA has only one selection in one generation. • Many methods have two types of selection (the environment selection and the mating selection). But, NCGA has the environment selection only. Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  8. Comparison method • Sampling of the Pareto frontier Lines of Intersection (ILI) (Knowles and Corne 2000) = 5/12=0.42 = 7/12=0.58 Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  19. Conclusion • We proposed a new model for Multi-objective GAs. • NCGA:NeighborhoodCultivationGA • Effective method for multi objective GA • The neighborhood crossover • Archive of excellent solutions. • A Method which cuts down reserved excellent solutions. • Use of the reserved excellent solutions for searching solutions. • Unification mechanism of the values of each objective. Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan

  20. Conclusion • NCGA was applied to some test functions and the results were compared to the other methods; such as SPEA2, NSGA-II and non-NCGA. • In almost test functions, NCGA derives the good results. • Comparing NCGA to NCGA without neighborhood crossover, NCGA is obviously superior to in all problems. NCGA is an effective algorithm for multi-objective problems. Doshisha Univ., Kyoto Japan
