Abstract

Multi-objective genetic algorithm is proved to be suitable for solving multi-objective optimization problems. However, it is usually very hard to balance the convergence and diversity of a multi-objective genetic algorithm. This paper introduces a new algorithm, with both good convergence and diversity based on clustering method and multi-parent crossover operator. Meanwhile, an initial population is generated by orthogonal design to enhance the search effort of the algorithm. The experimental results on a number of test problems indicate the good performance of the Cluster-Based Orthogonal Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm.
