The most important preference handling approaches used with evolutionary algorithms, analyzing their advantages and disadvantages are reviewed, and then, some of the potential areas of future research in this discipline are proposed.
Abstract
Despite the relatively high volume of research conducted on evolutionary multiobjective optimization in the last few years. Little attention has been paid to the decision making process that is required to select a final solution to the multiobjective optimization problem at hand. This paper reviews the most important preference handling approaches used with evolutionary algorithms, analyzing their advantages and disadvantages, and then, it proposes some of the potential areas of future research in this discipline.

Muiltiobjective optimization using nondominated sorting in genetic algorithms

TL;DR: Goldberg's notion of nondominated sorting in GAs along with a niche and speciation method to find multiple Pareto-optimal points simultaneously are investigated and suggested to be extended to higher dimensional and more difficult multiobjective problems.

Decisions with Multiple Objectives

TL;DR: In this article, a confused decision maker, who wishes to make a reasonable and responsible choice among alternatives, can systematically probe his true feelings in order to make those critically important, vexing trade-offs between incommensurable objectives.

An overview of evolutionary algorithms in multiobjective optimization

TL;DR: Current multiobjective evolutionary approaches are discussed, ranging from the conventional analytical aggregation of the different objectives into a single function to a number of population-based approaches and the more recent ranking schemes based on the definition of Pareto optimality.
