+ | ===== Automated configuration of multi-objective continuous optimizers ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Many problems arising in real-world applications involve the optimization of various, often conflicting objectives. While the design of algorithms for tackling multi-objective problems has usually done manually, over the recent years automated design methodologies have been established and proved to be very powerful. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The goal of this project is to extend the automated design to multi-objective continuous optimization problems. As the basis of the approach, a framework based on the two-phase plus Pareto local search approach will be developed into which basic search techniques for continuous optimization will be integrated. The goal is to build first a flexible framework from which then in a second step effective multi-objective optimizers will be generated exploiting automated algorithm design techniques. The final goal of this work is to participate in algorithm competitions with the goal of challenging the methodology. | ||
