Search Trajectories Networks of Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms
Yuri Lavinas, Claus Aranha, Gabriela Ochoa
Understanding the search dynamics of multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) is still an open problem. This paper extends a recent network-based tool, search trajectory networks (STNs), to model the behavior of MOEAs. Our approach uses the idea of decomposition, where a multiobjective problem is transformed into several single-objective problems. We show that STNs can be used to model and distinguish the search behavior of two popular multiobjective algorithms, MOEA/D and NSGA-II, using 10 continuous benchmark problems with 2 and 3 objectives. Our findings suggest that we can improve our understanding of MOEAs using STNs for algorithm analysis.
