desdeo-emo

The evolutionary algorithms package within the desdeo framework.

Currently supported:

• Multi-objective optimization with visualization and interaction support.
• Preference is accepted as a reference point.
• Surrogate modelling (neural networks and genetic trees) evolved via EAs.
• Surrogate assisted optimization

Currently NOT supported:

• Constraint handling

The documentation is currently being worked upon

To test the code, open the binder link and read example.ipynb.
