Multi-Party Multi-Objective Optimization as Consensus Search: Runtime Analysis of Cross-Party Recombination

Multi-party multi-objective optimization problems (MPMOPs) require consensus among autonomous decision makers and therefore differ from flattened many-objective formulations. Existing runtime theory for multi-objective evolutionary algorithms is largely tailored to single-party Pareto-front approximation and does not directly explain common-solution search in MPMOPs. We investigate cross-party recombination in two representative settings. On MP-JCG, a pseudo-Boolean benchmark with an explicit gap region, we prove that a payoff-guided mutation baseline faces a gap-crossing bottleneck requiring \(Θ(n^2)\) expected fitness evaluations. In contrast, an analytical CPR-NSGA-II variant discovers both common Pareto-optimal solutions in \(O(n\log n)\) expected evaluations by directly assembling complementary prefix and suffix templates distributed across party populations. Comparing this with the flattened four-objective formulation F-JCG, our full-front coverage analysis illustrates the additional coverage burden introduced by flattening. For BPBOMST, the bi-party, two-objective-per-party specialization of the multi-party multi-objective minimum spanning tree problem, we develop a layered support-cover analysis. For each common Pareto objective vector, the symmetric average projection induces an auxiliary bi-objective MST instance, and suitable support representatives yield a \(2λ\)-common approximation cover with \(λ\in[1,2]\). We further derive an instance-parameterized expected runtime bound for a representative-pool CPR-NSGA-II variant using edge-union recombination and uniform repair. This bound separates the effects of local auxiliary-front filling, cross-party recombination shortcuts, and edge-union repair ambiguity.

Benchmark Functions for CEC 2022 Competition on Seeking Multiple Optima in Dynamic Environments

Dynamic and multimodal features are two important properties and widely existed in many real-world optimization problems. The former illustrates that the objectives and/or constraints of the problems change over time, while the latter means there is more than one optimal solution (sometimes including the accepted local solutions) in each environment. The dynamic multimodal optimization problems (DMMOPs) have both of these characteristics, which have been studied in the field of evolutionary computation and swarm intelligence for years, and attract more and more attention. Solving such problems requires optimization algorithms to simultaneously track multiple optima in the changing environments. So that the decision makers can pick out one optimal solution in each environment according to their experiences and preferences, or quickly turn to other solutions when the current one cannot work well. This is very helpful for the decision makers, especially when facing changing environments. In this competition, a test suit about DMMOPs is given, which models the real-world applications. Specifically, this test suit adopts 8 multimodal functions and 8 change modes to construct 24 typical dynamic multimodal optimization problems. Meanwhile, the metric is also given to measure the algorithm performance, which considers the average number of optimal solutions found in all environments. This competition will be very helpful to promote the development of dynamic multimodal optimization algorithms.

Defending Adversarial Examples by Negative Correlation Ensemble

The security issues in DNNs, such as adversarial examples, have attracted much attention. Adversarial examples refer to the examples which are capable to induce the DNNs return completely predictions by introducing carefully designed perturbations. Obviously, adversarial examples bring great security risks to the development of deep learning. Recently, Some defense approaches against adversarial examples have been proposed, however, in our opinion, the performance of these approaches are still limited. In this paper, we propose a new ensemble defense approach named the Negative Correlation Ensemble (NCEn), which achieves compelling results by introducing gradient directions and gradient magnitudes of each member in the ensemble negatively correlated and at the same time, reducing the transferability of adversarial examples among them. Extensive experiments have been conducted, and the results demonstrate that NCEn can improve the adversarial robustness of ensembles effectively.

Evolutionary Multiparty Distance Minimization

In the field of evolutionary multiobjective optimization, the decision maker (DM) concerns conflicting objectives. In the real-world applications, there usually exist more than one DM and each DM concerns parts of these objectives. Multiparty multiobjective optimization problems (MPMOPs) are proposed to depict the MOP with multiple decision makers involved, where each party concerns about certain some objectives of all. However, in the evolutionary computation field, there is not much attention paid on MPMOPs. This paper constructs a series of MPMOPs based on distance minimization problems (DMPs), whose Pareto optimal solutions can be vividly visualized. To address MPMOPs, the new proposed algorithm OptMPNDS3 uses the multiparty initializing method to initialize the population and takes JADE2 operator to generate the offsprings. OptMPNDS3 is compared with OptAll, OptMPNDS and OptMPNDS2 on the problem suite. The result shows that OptMPNDS3 is strongly comparable to other algorithms

Privacy-Preserving Distributed Machine Learning Made Faster

With the development of machine learning, it is difficult for a single server to process all the data. So machine learning tasks need to be spread across multiple servers, turning the centralized machine learning into a distributed one. However, privacy remains an unsolved problem in distributed machine learning. Multi-key homomorphic encryption is one of the suitable candidates to solve the problem. However, the most recent result of the Multi-key homomorphic encryption scheme (MKTFHE) only supports the NAND gate. Although it is Turing complete, it requires efficient encapsulation of the NAND gate to further support mathematical calculation. This paper designs and implements a series of operations on positive and negative integers accurately. First, we design basic bootstrapped gates with the same efficiency as that of the NAND gate. Second, we construct practical $k$-bit complement mathematical operators based on our basic binary bootstrapped gates. The constructed created can perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division on both positive and negative integers. Finally, we demonstrated the generality of the designed operators by achieving a distributed privacy-preserving machine learning algorithm, i.e. linear regression with two different solutions. Experiments show that the operators we designed are practical and efficient.

Spatial-Aware Local Community Detection Guided by Dominance Relation

The problem of finding the spatial-aware community for a given node has been defined and investigated in geo-social networks. However, existing studies suffer from two limitations: a) the criteria of defining communities are determined by parameters, which are difficult to set; b) algorithms may require global information and are not suitable for situations where the network is incomplete. Therefore, we propose spatial-aware local community detection (SLCD), which finds the spatial-aware local community with only local information and defines the community based on the difference in the sparseness of edges inside and outside the community. Specifically, to address the SLCD problem, we design a novel spatial aware local community detection algorithm based on dominance relation, but this algorithm incurs high cost. To further improve the efficiency, we propose an approximate algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approximate algorithm outperforms the comparison algorithms.
