Abstract
- Managing convergence and diversity is essential in the design of multiobjective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) in search of an accurate and well distributed approximation of the true Pareto-optimal front. Largely due to its fast convergence, particle swarm optimization incurs a rapid loss of diversity during the evolutionary process. Many mechanisms have been proposed in existing MOPSOs in terms of leader selection, archive maintenance, and perturbation to tackle this deficiency. However, few MOPSOs are designed to dynamically adjust the balance in exploration and exploitation according to the feedback information detected from the evolutionary environment. In this paper, a novel method, named parallel cell coordinate system (PCCS), is proposed to assess the evolutionary environment including density, rank, and diversity indicators based on the measurements of parallel cell distance, potential, and distribution entropy, respectively. Based on PCCS, strategies proposed for selecting global best and personal best, maintaining archive, adjusting flight parameters, and perturbing stagnation are integrated into a self-adaptive MOPSO (pccsAMOPSO). The comparative experimental results show that the proposed pccsAMOPSO outperforms the other eight state-of-the-art competitors on ZDT and DTLZ test suites in terms of the chosen performance metrics. An additional experiment for density estimation in MOPSO illustrates that the performance of PCCS is superior to that of adaptive grid and crowding distance in terms of convergence and diversity.
