Abstract

In evolutionary optimization, the purpose of preselection is to identify some promising solutions in a set of candidate offspring solutions. The surrogate model is a popular method employed in preselection. A surrogate model is built to approximate the original objective function and to estimate the fitness values of the candidate solutions. Based on the estimated fitness values, the promising solutions can be identified. This paper aims to study and compare the surrogate model based preselection strategies in evolutionary algorithms. Systematic experiments are conducted to study the performance of four surrogate models. The experimental results suggest the surrogate model based preselection can significantly improve the performance of evolutionary algorithms.
