On September 21st, Kalyanmoy Deb a world-leading professor in Data Science with a passion for MOO (Multi-Objective Optimization) gives a guest lecture at ASSAR Industrial Innovation Center during the research conference in future manufacturing systems (click here to read more about this event). During his talk, Prof. Deb will take the industry perspective and guide us through the world of MOO.
About MOO
Abstract: Most problems in the industry involve more than one conflicting criterion to be simultaneously optimized. Despite the vast literature on scalarizing multiple criteria into a single one, evolutionary optimization methods of treating them as truly multi-criterion problems in a Pareto sense produce a number of additional benefits to the users. Their ability to find and maintain multiple trade-off solutions with a flexible and customizable framework provides vital knowledge about the problem in addition to the optimal solutions themselves. In this talk, we shall present a few popular and state-of-the-art algorithms and demonstrate their advantages on a number of real-world practical problems from engineering and the industry. Additionally, the use of machine learning algorithms and human knowledge in enhancing their performance and the use of multi-criterion algorithms in enhancing the performance of machine learning methods will be demonstrated.
