Abstract

Real-world optimization problems usually involve multiple objectives to be optimized at the same time under multiple constraints and with reference to many variables, whereas multi-objective optimization itself will be a difficult task, equally tough is that the ability to form a sense of the obtained solutions. This article presents various data mining techniques that can be applied to extract information regarding problems of multi-objective optimization. Further, this knowledge provides a deeper insight into prediction for the decision-makers.
