Abstract

Evolutionary algorithms have become a very popular approach for multiobjective optimization in many fields of engineering. Due to the outstanding performance of such techniques, new approaches are constantly been developed and tested to improve convergence, tackle new problems, and reduce computational cost. Recently, a new class of algorithms, based on ideas from the immune system, have begun to emerge as problem solvers in the evolutionary multiobjective optimization field. Although all these immune algorithms present unique, individual characteristics, there are some trends and common characteristics that, if explored, can lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms governing the behavior of these techniques. In this paper we propose a common framework for the description and analysis of multiobjective immune algorithms.
