Agent-Based NSGA-II — Simulation-Driven Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization
Agent-based NSGA-II embeds the NSGA-II evolutionary algorithm inside an agent-based simulation loop so that objective values for each candidate solution are determined by running a full agent simulation rather than by evaluating a closed-form function. This coupling enables multi-objective optimization over systems whose performance emerges from the micro-level interactions of autonomous agents rather than from analytically tractable equations.
