A Primary Theoretical Study on Decomposition-Based Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms.

Decomposition-based multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) have been studied a lot and have been widely and successfully used in practice. However, there are no related theoretical studies on this kind of MOEAs. In this paper, we theoretically analyze the MOEAs based on decomposition. First, we analyze the runtime complexity with two basic simple instances. In both cases the Pareto front h...
