    Collaborative Decomposition Multi-Objective Improved Elephant Clan Optimization Based on Penalty-Based and Normal Boundary Intersection

    Mengjiao Wei1,*, Wenyu Liu2

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.83, No.2, pp. 2505-2523, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2025.060887 - 16 April 2025

    Abstract In recent years, decomposition-based evolutionary algorithms have become popular algorithms for solving multi-objective problems in real-life scenarios. In these algorithms, the reference vectors of the Penalty-Based boundary intersection (PBI) are distributed parallelly while those based on the normal boundary intersection (NBI) are distributed radially in a conical shape in the objective space. To improve the problem-solving effectiveness of multi-objective optimization algorithms in engineering applications, this paper addresses the improvement of the Collaborative Decomposition (CoD) method, a multi-objective decomposition technique that integrates PBI and NBI, and combines it with the Elephant Clan Optimization Algorithm, introducing the… More >

    Abstract Multi-objective optimization is critical for problem-solving in engineering, economics, and AI. This study introduces the Multi-Objective Chef-Based Optimization Algorithm (MOCBOA), an upgraded version of the Chef-Based Optimization Algorithm (CBOA) that addresses distinct objectives. Our approach is unique in systematically examining four dominance relations—Pareto, Epsilon, Cone-epsilon, and Strengthened dominance—to evaluate their influence on sustaining solution variety and driving convergence toward the Pareto front. Our comparison investigation, which was conducted on fifty test problems from the CEC 2021 benchmark and applied to areas such as chemical engineering, mechanical design, and power systems, reveals that the dominance approach More >

    Abstract Wireless sensor network deployment optimization is a classic NP-hard problem and a popular topic in academic research. However, the current research on wireless sensor network deployment problems uses overly simplistic models, and there is a significant gap between the research results and actual wireless sensor networks. Some scholars have now modeled data fusion networks to make them more suitable for practical applications. This paper will explore the deployment problem of a stochastic data fusion wireless sensor network (SDFWSN), a model that reflects the randomness of environmental monitoring and uses data fusion techniques widely used in… More >

    Optimal Scheduling of an Independent Electro-Hydrogen System with Hybrid Energy Storage Using a Multi-Objective Standardization Fusion Method

    Suliang Ma1, Zeqing Meng1, Mingxuan Chen2,*, Yuan Jiang3

    Energy Engineering, Vol.122, No.1, pp. 63-84, 2025, DOI:10.32604/ee.2024.057216 - 27 December 2024

    Abstract In the independent electro-hydrogen system (IEHS) with hybrid energy storage (HESS), achieving optimal scheduling is crucial. Still, it presents a challenge due to the significant deviations in values of multiple optimization objective functions caused by their physical dimensions. These deviations seriously affect the scheduling process. A novel standardization fusion method has been established to address this issue by analyzing the variation process of each objective function’s values. The optimal scheduling results of IEHS with HESS indicate that the economy and overall energy loss can be improved 2–3 times under different optimization methods. The proposed method More > Graphic Abstract
