Demonstration of two multi-objective optimization strategies

Application of the weighted sum and epsilon-constraint methods for multi-objective optimization

You are now following this Submission

Created for use in introductory design optimization courses (e.g., SE 413 at UIUC). Demonstrates that the epsilon-constraint method can identify non-dominated points on a Pareto frontier corresponding to a multi-objective optimization problem, whereas the more well-known weighted sum method cannot. The test problem is adapted from:
