Optimization of high-dimensional expensive multi-objective problems using multi-mode radial basis functions by Jiangtao Shen, Xinjing Wang, Ruixuan He, Ye Tian, Wenxin Wang, Peng Wang, Zhiwen Wen

“…Abstract Numerous surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithms are developed for multi-objective expensive problems with low dimensions, but scarce works have paid attention to that with high dimensions, i.e., generally more than 30 decision variables. In this paper, we propose a multi-mode radial basis functions-assisted evolutionary algorithm (MMRAEA) for solving high-dimensional expensive multi-objective optimization problems. …”
