Abstract :
The paper describes a multiobjective optimization method which combines a second order algorithm with an enhanced evolutionary search in order to obtain a set of points which lie on the Pareto-optimal front. The second order portion of the method makes use of a "quasi-Jacobian" modification of the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm, while the evolutionary portion involves a population based search which follows a Pareto defined "gradient." Both methods are described in detail, and experimental results are included.
