Abstract

This paper presents a WFA for Multi-objective Continuous Optimization Problems. Namely WFA4MC. In order to prove WFA4MC performances precisely, this research proposes Correctness and Coverness to measure non-dominated solutions in ZDT functions. Besides, the Generational Distance is used in the comparison with other heuristic algorithms. The result showed that based on the same limit of the number of objective function calls, the WFA4MC outperform than others.
