Pareto-NRPA: A Novel Monte-Carlo Search Algorithm for Multi-Objective Optimization

2025-07-25 · Noé Lallouet, Tristan Cazenave, Cyrille Enderli arxiv

We introduce Pareto-NRPA, a new Monte-Carlo algorithm designed for multi-objective optimization problems over discrete search spaces. Extending the Nested Rollout Policy Adaptation (NRPA) algorithm originally formulated for single-objective problems, Pareto-NRPA generalizes the nested search and policy update mechanism to multi-objective optimization. The algorithm uses a set of policies to concurrently explore different regions of the solution space and maintains non-dominated fronts at each level of search. Policy adaptation is performed with respect to the diversity and isolation of sequences within the Pareto front. We benchmark Pareto-NRPA on two classes of problems: a novel bi-objective variant of the Traveling Salesman Problem with Time Windows problem (MO-TSPTW), and a neural architecture search task on well-known benchmarks. Results demonstrate that Pareto-NRPA achieves competitive performance against state-of-the-art multi-objective algorithms, both in terms of convergence and diversity of solutions. Particularly, Pareto-NRPA strongly outperforms state-of-the-art evolutionary multi-objective algorithms on constrained search spaces. To our knowledge, this work constitutes the first adaptation of NRPA to the multi-objective setting.

Refutation of Spectral Graph Theory Conjectures with Monte Carlo Search

2022-07-04 · Milo Roucairol, Tristan Cazenave

We demonstrate how Monte Carlo Search (MCS) algorithms, namely Nested Monte Carlo Search (NMCS) and Nested Rollout Policy Adaptation (NRPA), can be used to build graphs and find counter-examples to spectral graph theory …

Monte Carlo Graph Coloring

2025-04-04 · Tristan Cazenave, Benjamin Negrevergne, Florian Sikora

Graph Coloring is probably one of the most studied and famous problem in graph algorithms. Exact methods fail to solve instances with more than few hundred vertices, therefore, a large number of heuristics have been prop…
