Computation of the improvement directions of the Pareto front and its applica...
This paper introduces the mathematical development and algorithm of the Improvement-Directions Mapping (IDM) method, which computes improvement directions to "push" the current... -
A two-stage mono-and multi-objective method for the optimization of general U...
This paper introduces a two-stage method based on bio-inspired algorithms for the design optimization of a class of general Stewart platforms. The first stage performs a... -
Mechatronic design of a planar robot using multiobjective optimization
The concurrent design optimization of robots refers to the problem of optimizing parameters that affects different kinds of features at the same time. For instance, this work... -
A Broyden-based algorithm for multi-objective local-search optimization
In multi-objective optimization, the direction vectors in the objective space that improve the current non-dominated set are named improvement directions. The Improvement... -
The directed multi-objective estimation distribution algorithm (D-MOEDA)
Improvement Direction Mapping (IDM) methods have been applied as a local search strategy to hybridize global search algorithms. A natural question is whether this concept could...
