Enhancing Decomposition-based Algorithms by Estimation of Distribution for Constrained Optimal Software Product Selection

This paper integrates an estimation of distribution (EoD)-based update operator into decomposition-based multiobjective evolutionary algorithms for binary optimization. The probabilistic model in the update operator is a probability vector, which is adaptively learned from historical information of each subproblem. We show that this update operator can significantly enhance decomposition-based alg...
