Brief:

Exploit the potential of grid-based fitness and selection criteria to strengthen the selection pressure towards the optimal direction while maintaining an extensive and uniform distribution among solutions.

Results:

The solution sets of GrEA and other five multi-/many-object algorithms on the 8-objective DTLZ3 problem.

The solution sets of GrEA and other five multi-/many-object algorithms on the 10-objective DTLZ7 problem.
