Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

This study collects fifty test functions. This collection includes test problems from Deb ’s test and problem toolkit, ZDT and DTLZ test suites, Van Veldhuizen’s test suite, and other examples from the literature. For each test function, the Pareto-optimal set in the parameter space and the Pareto-optimal front in the fitness space are determined by using NSGA-II. We specify the main features of the Pareto-optimal sets for these test functions. The Pareto-optimal sets can be connected or disconnected, separable, unimodal of multimodal, symmetric and scalable. The Pareto-optimal fronts may have particular shapes such as a curve, a single point or a surface. The Paretooptimal fronts can be connected or disconnected, and entirely or partially with convex or nonconvex.
