arXiv:2607.04765v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large-scale sparse multiobjective optimization problems (LSSMOPs) involve a large number of decision variables and Pareto optimal solutions with only a few nonzero variables. However, as the number of decision variables grows, it becomes increasingly challenging to accurately identify the nonzero variables, and optimization performance is adversely affected. To address these issues, this paper proposes an evolutionary algorithm for LSSMOPs. Specifically, we propose a new initialization method capable of generating scores that accurately reflect the importance of variables, and an initial mask vector template that can locate nonzero variables. This leads to the generation of a high-quality initial population. Additionally, this paper introduces a new strategy to calculate the mutation probability for each variable and a novel optimization for real variables based on the Pareto-guided normal distribution, enabling the population to avoid be...
