• Exploring Structural Similarity in Fitness Landscapes via Graph Data Mining: A Case Study on Number Partitioning Problems

  Abs | PDF | Supp | BiB | ≈ 15%

  One of the most common problem-solving heuristics is by analogy. For a given problem, a solver can be viewed as a strategic walk on its fitness landscape. Thus if a solver works for one problem instance, we expect it will also be effective for other instances whose fitness landscapes essentially share structural similarities with each other. However, due to the black-box nature of combinatorial optimization, it is far from trivial to infer such similarity in real-world scenarios. To bridge this gap, by using local optima network as a proxy of fitness landscapes, this paper proposed to leverage graph data mining techniques to conduct qualitative and quantitative analyses to explore the latent topological structural information embedded in those landscapes. In our experiments, we use the number partitioning problem as the case and our empirical results are inspiring to support the overall assumption of the existence of structural similarity between landscapes within neighboring dimensions. Besides, experiments on simulated annealing demonstrate that the performance of a meta-heuristic solver is similar on structurally similar landscapes.

  In science and engineering, multi-objective optimization problems usually contain multiple complex constraints, which poses a significant challenge in obtaining the optimal solution. This paper aims to solve the challenges brought by multiple complex constraints. First, this paper analyzes the relationship between single constrained Pareto Front (SCPF) and their common Pareto Front sub-constrained Pareto Front (SubCPF). Next, we discussed the SCPF, SubCPF, and Unconstrainti Pareto Front (UPF)’s help to solve constraining Pareto Front (CPF). Then further discusses what kind of cooperation should be used between multiple populations constrained multi-objective optimization algorithm (CMOEA) to better deal with multi-constrained multi-objective optimization problems (mCMOPs). At the same time, based on the discussion in this paper, we propose a new multi-population CMOEA called MCCMO, which uses a new cooperation mechanism. MCCMO uses C+2 (C is the number of constraints) populations to find the UPF, SCPF, and SubCPF at an appropriate time. Furthermore, MCCMO uses the newly proposed Activation Dormancy Detection (ADD) to accelerate the optimization process and uses the proposed Combine Occasion Detection (COD) to find the appropriate time to find the SubCPF. The performance on 32 mCMOPs and real-world mCMOPs shows that our algorithm can obtain competitive solutions on MOPs with multiple constraints.
  

• Evolutionary Bi-level Optimization via Multi-objective Transformation Based Lower Level Search

  Nested evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been regarded as very promising tools for bi-level optimization. Due to the nested structure, the upper level population evaluation requires a set of complete lower level optimizations, thereby reducing the efficiency and practicability of EA methods. In this paper, a multi-objective transformation-based evolutionary algorithm (MOTEA) is proposed to perform multiple lower level optimizations in a parallel and collaborative manner. Specifically, the corresponding multiple lower level optimizations for each generation of the upper level population evaluation are transformed into locating a set of Pareto optimal solutions of a constructed multi-objective optimization problem. By utilizing the built-in implicit parallelism of evolutionary multi-objective optimization, multiple lower level problems can thus be optimized in parallel. Within one multi-objective search population, the collaboration among the parallel lower level optimization can be realized by exploiting and utilizing the implicit similarities among them for better efficiency. The effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed MOTEA are verified by comparing it with four state-of-the-art evolutionary bi-level optimization algorithms on two sets of popular bi-level optimization benchmark test problems and three application problems.

• Interactive Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization via Learning-to-Rank

  In practical multi-criterion decision-making, it is cumbersome if a decision maker (DM) is asked to choose among a set of trade-off alternatives covering the whole Pareto-optimal front. This is a paradox in conventional evolutionary multi-objective optimization (EMO) that always aim to achieve a well balance between convergence and diversity. In essence, the ultimate goal of multi-objective optimization is to help a decision maker (DM) identify solution(s) of interest (SOI) achieving satisfactory trade-offs among multiple conflicting criteria. Bearing this in mind, this paper develops a framework for designing preference-based EMO algorithms to find SOI in an interactive manner. Its core idea is to involve human in the loop of EMO. After every several iterations, the DM is invited to elicit her feedback with regard to a couple of incumbent candidates. By collecting such information, her preference is progressively learned by a learning-to-rank neural network and then applied to guide the baseline EMO algorithm. Note that this framework is so general that any existing EMO algorithm can be applied in a plug-in manner. Experiments on 48 benchmark test problems with up to 10 objectives and a real-world multi-objective robot control problem fully demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms for finding SOI.

  Multi-objective optimization problems are ubiquitous in real-world science, engineering and design optimization problems. It is not uncommon that the objective functions are as a black box, the evaluation of which usually involve time-consuming and/or costly physical experiments. Data-driven evolutionary optimization can be used to search for a set of non-dominated trade-off solutions, where the expensive objective functions are approximated as a surrogate model. In this paper, we propose a framework for implementing batched data-driven evolutionary multi-objective optimization. It is so general that any off-the-shelf evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms can be applied in a plug-in manner. There are two unique components: 1) based on the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions, a manifold interpolation approach that explores more diversified solutions with a convergence guarantee along the manifold of the approximated Pareto-optimal set; and 2) a batch recommendation approach that reduces the computational time of the data-driven evolutionary optimization process by evaluating multiple samples at a time in parallel. Comparing against 7 state-of-the-art surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithms, experiments on 168 benchmark test problem instances with various properties and a real-world application on hyper-parameter optimization fully demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our proposed framework, which is featured with a faster convergence and a stronger resilience to various PF shapes.

• Neural Architecture Search for Portrait Parsing

  This work proposes a neural architecture search (NAS) method for portrait parsing, which is a novel up-level task based on portrait segmentation and face labeling. Recently, NAS has become an effective method in terms of automatic machine learning. However, remarkable achievements have been made only in image classification and natural language processing (NLP) areas. Meanwhile, state-of-the-art portrait segmentation and face labeling approaches are all manually designed, but few models reach a tradeoff between efficiency and performance. Thus, we are extremely interested in improving existing NAS methods for dense-per-pixel prediction tasks on portrait datasets. To achieve that, we resort to a cell-based encoder-decoder architecture with an elaborate design of connectivity structure and searching space. As a result, we achieve state-of-the-art performance on three portrait tasks, including 96.8% MIOU on EG1800 (portrait segmentation), 91.2% overall F1-score on HELEN (face labeling), and 95.1% overall F1-score on CelebAMask-HQ (portrait parsing) with only 2.29M model parameters. That is, our approach compares favorably with all previous works on portrait datasets. More crucially, we empirically prove that even a fundamental encoder-decoder architecture may reach an outstanding result on the aforementioned tasks with the help of the innovative approach of NAS. To the best of our knowledge, our work is also the first to report the success of applying NAS on these portrait tasks.

  Deep neural networks (DNNs) are susceptible to adversarial images, raising concerns about their reliability in safety-critical tasks. Sparse adversarial attacks, which limit the number of modified pixels, have shown to be highly effective in causing DNNs to misclassify. However, existing methods often struggle to simultaneously minimize the number of modified pixels and the size of the modifications, often requiring a large number of queries and assuming unrestricted access to the targeted DNN. In contrast, other methods that limit the number of modified pixels often permit unbounded modifications, making them easily detectable. To address these limitations, we propose a novel multi-objective sparse attack algorithm that efficiently minimizes the number of modified pixels and their size during the attack process. Our algorithm draws inspiration from evolutionary computation and incorporates a mechanism for prioritizing objectives that aligns with an attacker's goals. Our approach outperforms existing sparse attacks on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet trained DNN classifiers while requiring only a small query budget, attaining competitive attack success rates while perturbing fewer pixels. Overall, our proposed attack algorithm provides a solution to the limitations of current sparse attack methods by jointly minimizing the number of modified pixels and their size. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in restricted scenarios, highlighting its potential to enhance DNN security.
  

• Data-Driven Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization Based on Multiple-Gradient Descent for Disconnected Pareto Fronts

  Data-driven evolutionary multi-objective optimization (EMO) has been recognized as an effective approach for multi-objective optimization problems with expensive objective functions. The current research is mainly developed for problems with a 'regular' triangle-like Pareto-optimal front (PF), whereas the performance can significantly deteriorate when the PF consists of disconnected segments. Furthermore, the offspring reproduction in the current data-driven EMO does not fully leverage the latent information of the surrogate model. Bearing these considerations in mind, this paper proposes a data-driven EMO algorithm based on multiple-gradient descent. By leveraging the regularity information provided by the up-to-date surrogate model, it is able to progressively probe a set of well distributed candidate solutions with a convergence guarantee. In addition, its infill criterion recommends a batch of promising candidate solutions to conduct expensive objective function evaluations. Experiments on 33 benchmark test problem instances with disconnected PFs fully demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method against four selected peer algorithms.

  Knee points, characterized as a small improvement on one objective can lead to a significant degradation on at least one of the other objectives, are attractive to decision makers in multi-criterion decision-making. This paper presents a simple and effective knee point identification method to help decision makers identify solution(s) of interest from a given set of trade-off solutions thus facilitating posterior decision-making. Our basic idea is to sequentially validate whether a solution is a knee point or not by comparing its localized trade-off utility with others within its neighborhood characterized from a decomposition perspective. In particular, a solution is a knee point if and only if it has the best localized trade-off utility among its neighbors. We implement a GPU version that carries out the knee point identification in a parallel manner. This GPU version reduces the worst-case complexity from quadratic to linear. The performance of our proposed method is compared with five state-of-the-art knee point identification methods on 134 test problem instances and two real-world engineering design problems. Empirical results demonstrate its outstanding performance especially on problems with many local knee points. We further validate the usefulness of our proposed method for guiding evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms to search for knee points on the fly during the evolutionary process.

  This article proposes a controlling framework for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to integrate the modes of formation flight and swarm deployment over fixed and switching topologies. Formation strategies enable UAVs to enjoy key collective benefits including reduced energy consumption, but the shape of the formation and each UAV's freedom are significantly restrained. Swarm strategies are thus proposed to maximize each UAV's freedom following simple yet powerful rules. This article investigates the integration and switch between these two strategies, considering the deployment environment factors, such as poor network conditions and unknown and often highly mobile obstacles. We design a distributed formation controller to guide multiple UAVs in orderless states to swiftly reach an intended formation. Inspired by starling birds and similar biological creatures, a distributed collision avoidance controller is proposed to avoid unknown and mobile obstacles. We further illustrated the stability of the controllers over both fixed and switching topologies. The experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the framework.

• Transfer Learning Based Parallel Evolutionary Algorithm Framework for Bi-level Optimization

  Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been recognized as a promising approach for bilevel optimization. However, the population-based characteristic of EAs largely influences their efficiency and effectiveness due to the nested structure of the two levels of optimization problems. In this article, we propose a transfer learning-based parallel EA (TLEA) framework for bilevel optimization. In this framework, the task of optimizing a set of lower level problems parameterized by upper level variables is conducted in a parallel manner. In the meanwhile, a transfer learning strategy is developed to improve the effectiveness of each lower level search (LLS) process. In practice, we implement two versions of the TLEA: the first version uses the covariance matrix adaptation evolutionary strategy and the second version uses the differential evolution as the evolutionary operator in lower level optimization. The experimental studies on two sets of widely used bilevel optimization benchmark problems are conducted, and the performance of the two TLEA implementations is compared to that of four well-established evolutionary bilevel optimization algorithms to verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm framework.

• Preference based Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning for Multi-Microgrid System Optimization Problem in Smart Grid

  Grid-connected microgrids comprising renewable energy, energy storage systems and local load, play a vital role in decreasing the energy consumption of fossil diesel and greenhouse gas emissions. A distribution power network connecting several microgrids can promote more potent and reliable operations to enhance the security and privacy of the power system. However, the operation control for a multi-microgrid system is a big challenge. To design a multi-microgrid power system, an intelligent multi-microgrids energy management method is proposed based on the preference-based multi-objective reinforcement learning (PMORL) techniques. The power system model can be divided into three layers: the consumer layer, the independent system operator layer, and the power grid layer. Each layer intends to maximize its benefit. The PMORL is proposed to lead to a Pareto optimal set for each object to achieve these objectives. A non-dominated solution is decided to execute a balanced plan not to favor any particular participant. The preference-based results show that the proposed method can effectively learn different preferences. The simulation outcomes confirm the performance of the PMORL and verify the viability of the proposed method.

• Surrogate-Assisted Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization for Hardware Design Space Exploration
  Renzhi Chen+, Ke Li
  Proc. of the NeurIPS Workshop on Gaussian Processes, Spatiotemporal Modeling, and Decision-making Systems, 2022
  Abs | PDF | BiB

  Hardware design space exploration (DSE) aims to find a suitable micro-architecture for the dedicated hardware accelerators. It is a computationally expensive black-box optimization problem with more than one conflicting performance indicator. Surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithm is a promising framework for expensive multi-objective optimization problems given its surrogate modeling for handling expensive objective functions and population-based characteristics that search for a set of trade-off solutions simultaneously. However, most, if not all, existing studies mainly focus ‘regular’ Pareto-optimal fronts (PFs), whereas the PF is typically irregular in hardware DSE. In the meanwhile, the gradient information of the differentiable surrogate model(s) is beneficial to navigate a more effective exploration of the search space, but it is yet fully exploited. This paper proposes a surrogate-assisted evolutionary multi-objective optimization based on multiple-gradient descent (MGD) for hardware DSE. Empirical results on both synthetic problems with irregular PFs and real-world hardware DSE cases fully demonstrate the effectiveness and outstanding performance of our proposed algorithm.
  

• Are All Training Data Useful? A Empirical Revisit of Subset Selection in Bayesian Optimization

  Bayesian optimization (BO) has been widely recognized as a powerful approach for black-box optimization problems with expensive objective function(s). Gaussian process (GP), which has been widely used for surrogate modeling in BO, is notorious for its cubic computational complexity grows with the increase of the amount of evaluated samples. This can lead to a significantly increased computational time for BO due to its sequential decision-making nature. This paper revisit the simple and effective subset selection methods to pick up a small group of representative data from the entire dataset to carry out the training and inference of GP in the context of BO. Empirical studies demonstrate that subset selection methods not only promote the performance of the vanilla BO but also significantly reduce the computational time for up to 98%.
