      public WFG7(int k, int l, int M)
      Constructs a WFG7 problem instance with the specified number of position-related and distance-related variables and the specified number of objectives.
      Parameters:
      k - the number of position-related variables for this problem
      l - the number of distance-related variables for this problem
      M - the number of objectives for this problem
  • Method Details

    • evaluate

      public void evaluate(Solution solution)
      Description copied from interface: Problem
      Evaluates the solution, updating the solution's objectives in place. Algorithms must explicitly call this method when appropriate to evaluate new solutions or reevaluate modified solutions.
      Parameters:
      solution - the solution to be evaluated
    • generate

      public Solution generate()
      Description copied from interface: AnalyticalProblem
      Returns a randomly-generated solution using the analytical solution to this problem. The exact behavior of this method depends on the implementation, but in general (1) the solutions should be non-dominated and (2) spread uniformly across the Pareto front.

      It is not always possible to guarantee these conditions. For example, a discontinuous / disconnected Pareto surface could generate dominated solutions, and a biased problem could result in non-uniform distributions. Therefore, we recommend callers filter solutions through a NondominatedPopulation, in particular one that maintains a spread of solutions.

      Furthermore, some implementations may not provide the corresponding decision variables for the solution. These implementations should indicate this by returning a solution with 0 decision variables.

      Returns:
      a randomly-generated Pareto optimal solution to this problem
