This study proposes a surrogate-assisted multi-objective evolutionary algorithm that integrates multiple surrogate-assisted strategies to improve the optimization efficiency of computationally expensive multi-objective problems. The algorithm utilizes a surrogate-assisted penalty-based boundary intersection infill criterion and an operator-repeated offspring creation strategy for global search and diversity of Pareto optimal solutions. In addition, an improved surrogate-based multi-objective local search method is introduced to accelerate convergence speed. Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed algorithm compared to state-of-the-art approaches.
Surrogate-assisted strategies work differently in surrogate-assisted multi-objective evolutionary algorithms. How to select suitable surrogate-assisted strategies to balance global and local search and diversity of Pareto optimal solutions is usually difficult for efficient optimization of computationally expensive multi-objective problems, which only allow limited time costs in the optimization process. Therefore, to further improve the optimization efficiency for expensive multi-objective problems, a surrogate-assisted operator-repeated multi-objective evolutionary algorithm is proposed by reason-ably integrating several surrogate-assisted strategies in this study. Specifically, the proposed algorithm is based on a operator-repeated offspring creation strategy, which can produce many diverse candidate offspring individuals and thus make the proposed algorithm search globally and efficiently. In addition, a novel infill criterion termed as reference-vector-guided surrogate-assisted penalty-based boundary intersection is proposed and combined with a common Kriging-based expected improvement matrix infill criterion for complementary prescreening over the candidate offspring individuals. These two infill criteria can make a good balance between global search and diversity of Pareto optimal solutions. In addition, to fasten convergence speed, an improved surrogate-based multi-objective local search method with minimum distance-angle sampling is also proposed and embedded in the proposed algo-rithm. Several benchmark problems with dimensions varying from 8 to 50 and a practical two-objective airfoil design optimization problem with 14 design variables are tested to validate efficiency of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms some state-of-the-art surrogate-assisted multi-objective optimization algorithms on most of problems.(c) 2023 Published by Elsevier B.V.
