Description
Summary:In this paper, a modified Pascoletti–Serafini scalarization approach, called MOP_MPS, is proposed to generate approximations of a Pareto front of bounded multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs). The objective is obtaining some points with an almost even distribution overall Pareto front. This algorithm is applied to six test problems with convex, non-convex, connected, and dis-connected Pareto fronts, and its results are compared with results of some famous algorithms. The results emphasize that MOP_MPS is effective and competitive in comparing with the other considered algorithms. In addition, it is shown that an optimal solution of a multiplicative programming problem is a properly Pareto optimal solution of an MOP. By considering this relation between MOPs and multiplicative programming problems (MPPs), another algorithm based on MOP_MPS, called MPP_MPS, is suggested for approximately solving non-linear MPPs in which functions multiplied are continuous and bounded from below. The computational results on seven problems of convex MPPs demonstrate that the algorithm is much better than a cut and bound algorithm presented by Shao and Ehrgott in terms of CPU time.
