Abstract

An improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) variant known as the MOPSO with alternate learning strategies (MOPSOALS) is proposed to overcome the drawbacks of most existing MOPSO variants that can only solve the selected categories of optimization problems with good performance due to the limited directional information brought by search operators. Particularly, both of the current and memory swarm evolution are incorporated into MOPSOALS as the more robust mechanisms in handling different types of problems. Two search operators are introduced in current swarm evolution to determine the particle’s new velocity, while three operators are proposed to fine tune the particle’s personal best position. These five proposed search operators are anticipated to guide all MOPSOALS particles to perform thorough searching in the solution search spaces with various exploration and exploitation strengths by fully utilizing all useful information contained in the non-dominated solution set. The proposed MOPSOALS is reported to have better performance in solving all selected test functions than the five peer algorithms.
