Comparative empirical study on constraint handling in offline data-driven evolutionary optimization

Pengfei Huang et al.

Summary: Offline data-driven optimization relies on historical data to build surrogate models for guiding the search, which becomes more challenging when constraints are involved. This paper discusses constraint handling techniques in combination with an evolutionary algorithm and tests different functions with constraints to evaluate optimization performance. The results show that multi-objective-based constraint handling techniques are more likely to generate feasible solutions, while stochastic ranking produces higher quality feasible solutions.

Rule-based reinforcement learning methodology to inform evolutionary algorithms for constrained optimization of engineering applications

Majdi Radaideh et al.

Summary: In this study, a rule-based RL method is proposed to guide evolutionary algorithms in constrained optimization, showing significant improvement in continuous optimization over standalone algorithms. RL-guided EA outperforms standalone algorithms by more than 10 times in exploration capabilities and computational efficiency, indicating the effectiveness of RL in focusing the search space in areas where expert knowledge has merit.
