The current state of the art of materials research using multi-objective genetic and evolutionary algorithms is briefly presented with critical analyses. The basic concepts of multi-objective optimisation and Pareto optimality are explained in simple terms and the advantages of an evolutionary approach are emphasised. Current materials related research in this area is summarised, focusing on the achievements to date and the specific needs for further improvement.
| selected citations These citations are derived from selected sources. This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | 35 | |
| popularity This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network. | Top 10% | |
