A new interval multi-objective optimization method for uncertain problems with dependent interval variables. (English) Zbl 07342681
Summary: In this paper, a new interval multi-objective optimization (MOO) method integrating with the multidimensional parallelepiped (MP) interval model has been proposed to handle the uncertain problems with dependent interval variables. The MP interval model is integrated to depict the uncertain domain of the problem, where the uncertainties are described by marginal intervals and the degree of the dependencies among the interval variables is described by correlation coefficients. Then an efficient multi-objective iterative algorithm combining the micro multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) with an approximate optimization method is formulated. Three numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.
