Constructor Details

NormalizedIndicator

public NormalizedIndicator(Problem problem,
 NondominatedPopulation referenceSet)

Constructs a normalized indicator for the specified problem and corresponding reference set. See DefaultNormalizer for details on how normalization can be customized.

Parameters:

problem - the problem

referenceSet - the reference set for the problem

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the reference set contains fewer than two solutions

NormalizedIndicator

public NormalizedIndicator(Problem problem,
 NondominatedPopulation referenceSet,
 Normalizer normalizer)

Constructs a normalized indicator for the specified problem, reference set, and normalizer.

Parameters:

problem - the problem

referenceSet - the reference set for the problem

normalizer - a user-provided normalizer, or null to use the default

Method Details

normalize

protected NondominatedPopulation normalize(NondominatedPopulation approximationSet)

Normalizes the specified approximation set.

Parameters:

approximationSet - the approximation set to be normalized

Returns:

a new population representing the normalized approximation set

getNormalizedReferenceSet

protected NondominatedPopulation getNormalizedReferenceSet()

Returns the normalized reference set.

Returns:

the normalized reference set
