| Abstract: |
This paper introduces the MaxiMin selection algorithm, a deterministic procedure to achieve maximal spread and almost perfectly distributed Pareto fronts. MaxiMin is successful because the measure of uniformity is performed on the set being constructed, not on the source set as most multi-objective algorithms do. For comparison purposes we present results delivered by several MOEAs with and without the MaxiMin selection. Performance metrics and graphical results show that MaxiMin improves the distribution and spread of Pareto fronts, with no negative effects on the convergence performance of the multi-objective algorithm. |
