Improved Lebesgue Indicator-Based Evolutionary Algorithm: Reducing Hypervolume Computations

Abstract

One of the major limitations of evolutionary algorithms based on the Lebesgue measure for multi-objective optimization is the computational cost required to approximate the Pareto front of a problem. Nonetheless, the Pareto compliance property of the Lebesgue measure makes it one of the most investigated indicators in the design of indicator-based evolutionary algorithms (IBEAs). The main deficiency of IBEAs that use the Lebesgue measure is their computational cost which increases with the number of objectives of the problem. On this matter, the investigation presented in this paper introduces an evolutionary algorithm based on the Lebesgue measure to deal with box-constrained continuous multi-objective optimization problems. The proposed algorithm implicitly uses the regularity property of continuous multi-objective optimization problems that has suggested effectiveness when solving continuous problems with rough Pareto sets. On the other hand, the survival selection mechanism considers the local property of the Lebesgue measure, thus reducing the computational time in our algorithmic approach. The emerging indicator-based evolutionary algorithm is examined and compared versus three state-of-the-art multi-objective evolutionary algorithms based on the Lebesgue measure. In addition, we validate its performance on a set of artificial test problems with various characteristics, including multimodality, separability, and various Pareto front forms, incorporating concavity, convexity, and discontinuity. For a more exhaustive study, the proposed algorithm is evaluated in three real-world applications having four, five, and seven objective functions whose properties are unknown. We show the high competitiveness of our proposed approach, which, in many cases, improved the state-of-the-art indicator-based evolutionary algorithms on the multi-objective problems adopted in our investigation.
