Multiobjective evolutionary algorithms based on decomposition (MOEA/D) decompose a multiobjective optimization problem (MOP) into a group of subproblems and optimizes them at the same time. The reproduction method in MOEA/D, which generates offspring solutions, has crucial effect on the performance of algorithm. As the difficulties of MOPs increases, it requires much higher efficiency for the reproduction methods in MOEA/D. However, for the complex optimization problems whose PS shape is complicated, the original reproduction method used in MOEA/D might not be suitable to generate excellent offspring solutions. In order to improve the property of the reproduction method for MOEA/D, this paper proposes an external archive matching strategy which selects solutions’ most matching archive solutions as parent solutions. The offspring solutions generated by this strategy can maintain a good convergence ability. To balance convergence and diversity, a perturbed learning scheme is used to extend the search space of the solutions. The experimental results on three groups of test problems reveal that the solutions obtained by MOEA/D-EAM have better convergence and diversity than the other four state-of-the-art algorithms. |
