[docs] class Pareto(object): """Represents a Pareto multiobjective solution. A Pareto solution is a set of multiobjective values that can be compared to other Pareto values using Pareto preference. This means that a solution dominates, or is better than, another solution if it is better than or equal to the other solution in all objectives and strictly better in at least one objective. Since some problems may mix maximization and minimization among different objectives, an optional `maximize` parameter may be passed upon construction of the Pareto object. This parameter may be a list of Booleans of the same length as the set of objective values. If this parameter is used, then the `maximize` parameter of the evolutionary computation's ``evolve`` method should be left as the default True value in order to avoid confusion. (Setting the `evolve`'s parameter to False would essentially invert all of the Booleans in the Pareto `maximize` list.) So, if all objectives are of the same type (either maximization or minimization), then it is best simply to use the `maximize` parameter of the `evolve` method and to leave the `maximize` parameter of the Pareto initialization set to its default True value. However, if the objectives are mixed maximization and minimization, it is best to leave the ``evolve``'s `maximize` parameter set to its default True value and specify the Pareto's `maximize` list to the appropriate Booleans. The typical usage is as follows:: @inspyred.ec.evaluators.evaluator def my_evaluator(candidate, args): obj1 = 1 # Calculate objective 1 obj2 = 2 # Calculate objective 2 obj3 = 3 # Calculate objective 3 return emo.Pareto([obj1, obj2, obj3]) """ def __init__(self, values=None, maximize=True): if values is None: values = [] self.values = values try: iter(maximize) except TypeError: maximize = [maximize for v in values] self.maximize = maximize def __len__(self): return len(self.values) def __getitem__(self, key): return self.values[key] def __iter__(self): return iter(self.values) def __lt__(self, other): if len(self.values) != len(other.values): raise NotImplementedError else: not_worse = True strictly_better = False for x, y, m in zip(self.values, other.values, self.maximize): if m: if x > y: not_worse = False elif y > x: strictly_better = True else: if x < y: not_worse = False elif y < x: strictly_better = True return not_worse and strictly_better def __le__(self, other): return self < other or not other < self def __gt__(self, other): return other < self def __ge__(self, other): return other < self or not self < other def __eq__(self, other): return self.values == other.values def __ne__(self, other): return not (self == other) def __str__(self): return str(self.values) def __repr__(self): return str(self.values)
