Multi-Objective Quantum-Inspired Seagull Optimization Algorithm

Objective solutions of multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs) are required to balance convergence and distribution to the Pareto front. This paper proposes a multi-objective quantum-inspired seagull optimization algorithm (MOQSOA) to optimize the convergence and distribution of solutions in multi-objective optimization problems. The proposed algorithm adopts opposite-based learning, the migration and attacking behavior of seagulls, grid ranking, and the superposition principles of quantum computing. To obtain a better initialized population in the absence of a priori knowledge, an opposite-based learning mechanism is used for initialization. The proposed algorithm uses nonlinear migration and attacking operation, simulating the behavior of seagulls for exploration and exploitation. Moreover, the real-coded quantum representation of the current optimal solution and quantum rotation gate are adopted to update the seagull population. In addition, a grid mechanism including global grid ranking and grid density ranking provides a criterion for leader selection and archive control. The experimental results of the IGD and Spacing metrics performed on ZDT, DTLZ, and UF test suites demonstrate the superiority of MOQSOA over NSGA-II, MOEA/D, MOPSO, IMMOEA, RVEA, and LMEA for enhancing the distribution and convergence performance of MOPs.
