An improved multi-objective genetic algorithm is proposed to solve constrained optimization problems. The constrained optimization problem is converted into a multi-objective optimization problem. In the evolution process, our algorithm is based on multi-objective technique, where the population is divided into dominated and non-dominated subpopulation. Arithmetic crossover operator is utilized for the randomly selected individuals from dominated and non-dominated subpopulation, respectively. The crossover operator can lead gradually the individuals to the extreme point and improve the local searching ability. Diversity mutation operator is introduced for non-dominated subpopulation. Through testing the performance of the proposed algorithm on 3 benchmark functions and 1 engineering optimization problems, and comparing with other meta-heuristics, the result of simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has great ability of global search. Keywords: multi-objective optimization;genetic algorithm;constrained optimization problem;engineering application

This paper presents a new multi-objective optimization method, which is inspired from the idea of non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) and genetic quantum algorithm (GQA). The GQA has been tested on well known test beds in single objective optimization and compared with the genetic algorithm (GA) in the lead author’s previous work [22]. This paper aims to apply the idea of GQA to multi-objective optimization (MOO). The developed method is called non-dominated sorting genetic quantum algorithm (NSGQA). The developed method is tested with benchmark problems collected from literature, which have characteristics representing various aspects of a MOO problem. Test results show that NSGQA has better performance on most benchmark problems than currently popular MOO methods such as the NSGA. The integration of GQA with MOO, and the systematic comparison with other MOO methods on benchmark problems, should be of general interest to researchers on MOO and to practitioners using MOO methods in design.
