description | Traditional multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) consider multiple objectives as a whole when solving multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs). In this paper, the hybridization of garden balsam optimization (GBO) is presented to solve multi-objective optimization, applying multiple populations for multiple objectives individually. Moreover, in order to improve the diversity of the solutions, both crowding distance computations and epsilon dominance relations are adopted when updating the archive. Furthermore, an efficient selection procedure called co-evolutionary multi-swarm garden balsam optimization (CMGBO) is proposed to ensure the convergence of well-diversified Pareto regions. The performance of the used algorithm is validated on 12 test functions. The algorithm is employed to solve four real-world problems in engineering. The achieved consequences corroborate the advantage of the proposed algorithm with regard to convergence and diversity. |
