An Ontology of Preference-Based Multiobjective Metaheuristics
User preference integration is of great importance in multi-objective optimization, in particular in many objective optimization. Preferences have long been considered in traditional multicriteria decision making (MCDM) which is based on mathematical programming. Recently, it is integrated in multi-objective metaheuristics (MOMH), resulting in focus on preferred parts of the Pareto front instead of the whole Pareto front. The number of publications on preference-based multi-objective metaheuristics has increased rapidly over the past decades. There already exist various preference handling methods and MOMH methods, which have been combined in diverse ways. This article proposes to use the Web Ontology Language (OWL) to model and systematize the results developed in this field. A review of the existing work is provided, based on which an ontology is built and instantiated with state-of-the-art results. The OWL ontology is made public and open to future extension. Moreover, the usage of the ontology is exemplified for different use-cases, including querying for methods that match an engineering application, bibliometric analysis, checking existence of combinations of preference models and MOMH techniques, and discovering opportunities for new research and open research questions.

Preference Incorporation into Many-Objective Optimization: An Outranking-based Ant Colony Algorithm
In this paper, we enriched Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) with interval outranking to develop a novel multiobjective ACO optimizer to approach problems with many objective functions. This proposal is suitable if the prefe…
The Hybridization of Branch and Bound with Metaheuristics for Nonconvex Multiobjective Optimization
A hybrid framework combining the branch and bound method with multiobjective evolutionary algorithms is proposed for nonconvex multiobjective optimization. The hybridization exploits the complementary character of the tw…
