It is of necessity to select appropriate optimization algorithms from an algorithm library due to the universality of constrained multi-objective optimization problems and the suitability of intelligent optimization algorithms, which requires a rich optimization algorithm library. This paper proposes a migration-based method of enriching the algorithm library for constrained multi-objective optimization problems. After calculating the similarity between problems based on their landscape features, the proposed method calculates the migration probabilities of intelligent optimization algorithms solving similar problems based on the performance of each algorithm and the similarity between problems. According to the redundancy and compatibility of components, the algorithms with large migration probabilities enrich the algorithm library for solving the current problem. Based on the enhanced algorithm library, a Softmax regression model is trained to generate an optimal intelligent algorithm to solve the current problem. The proposed method is applied to solve a series of constrained multi-objective optimization benchmark problems and the operation optimization problems of an integrated coal mine energy system, and the experimental results verify its effectiveness and feasibility. • A method based on landscape features is proposed to determine similar problems. • A method is given to select migrated algorithms based on similarity and performance. • A method based on redundancy and compatibility is presented to enrich an IOAL.
