Selection of an Optimal Solution for Multiobjective Electromagnetic Apparatus Design Based on Game Theory

In general, many optimal solutions exist to a multipurpose optimal design problem, and the selection of one appropriate solution from the optimal set is a challenging task. In this work, a method applying Game Theory for decision-making from the Pareto-optimal solutions is proposed. From a practical point of view, more than two objectives frequently have to be taken into account. The optimal design method presented in this paper is able to deal with such problems. The proposed method was applied to an optimal design problem with multiple objectives to confirm its usefulness.
