Solving non-cyclic dynamic multi-objective optimization problems via GRU prediction and multi-information hybrid exploration
摘要
In non-cyclic dynamic multi-objective optimization problems, the non-cyclic nature of environmental changes may cause the Pareto optimal front (PF) to be different from historical times. In addition, changes may also occur on the Pareto optimal solutions set (PS). However, predictions based solely on a single space show lower accuracy due to insufficient information. Therefore, solving non-cyclic dynamic multi-objective optimization problems via gate recurrent unit (GRU) prediction and multi-information hybrid exploration (GPMHE) is designed to overcome the above challenges. In the objective space, the GRU-based prediction strategy (GP) captures patterns of population change, predicts its distribution in new environments, and subsequently maps the results to the decision space; The multi-information hybrid exploration strategy (MHE) takes the feature individual as the representative individual, adaptively guides the population evolution direction in the decision space, thereby enhancing the algorithm’s adaptability. Compared with five advanced algorithms on the non-cyclic dynamic benchmark test set (NCD), the proposed algorithm GPMHE has shown robust adaptation to dynamic environmental changes.
