Abstract:

This paper proposes a new constraint handling method named Angle-based Constrained Dominance Principle (ACDP). Unlike the original Constrained Dominance Principle (CDP), this approach adopts the angle information of the objective functions to enhance the population's diversity in the infeasible region. To be more specific, given two infeasible solutions, if the angle of the solutions is greater than a given threshold, they are considered to be non-dominated by each other. For a feasible solution and an infeasible solution, if the angle of the solutions is less than a given threshold, the feasible solution is better, otherwise they are non-dominated. To verify the proposed constraint handling approach ACDP, eight test problems CMOP1 to CMOP8 are introduced. The suggested algorithm MOEA/D-ACDP is compared with MOEA/D-CDP and NSGA-II-CDP on CMOP1 to CMOP8. The experimental results demonstrate that ACDP performs better than CDP in the framework of MOEA/D, and MOEA/D-ACDP is significantly better than NSGA-II-CDP, especially on the test instances with the very low ratio of feasible region against the whole objective space.
