• Abstract: Constrained multiobjective optimization has gained much interest in the past few years. However, constrained multiobjective optimization problems (CMOPs) are still unsatisfactorily understood. Consequently, the choice of adequate CMOPs for benchmarking is difficult and lacks a formal background. This paper addresses this issue by exploring CMOPs from a performance space perspective. First, it presents a novel performance assessment approach designed explicitly for constrained multiobjective optimization. This methodology offers a first attempt to simultaneously measure the performance in approximating the Pareto front and constraint satisfaction. Secondly, it proposes an approach to measure the capability of the given optimization problem to differentiate among algorithm performances. Finally, this approach is used to contrast eight frequently used artificial test suites of CMOPs. The experimental results reveal which suites are more efficient in discerning between three well-known multiobjective optimization algorithms. Benchmark designers can use these results to select the most appropriate CMOPs for their needs.

  Quantum and quantum-inspired optimisation algorithms have shown promising performance when applied to academic benchmarks as well as real-world problems. However, QUBO solvers are single objective solvers. To make them more efficient at solving problems with multiple objectives, a decision on how to convert such multi-objective problems to single-objective problems need to be made.

  We are motivated to study a new problem named Amalgamation: how can we best combine a pool of "teacher" amalgamations into a single "student" that can have stronger problem-specific performance? First, we define three differentiable mechanisms to amalgamate a pool of analyticals by gradient descent. In order to reduce variance of the process, we also explore methods to stabilize the process by perturbing the target.
