A plan/solution

x

1

dominates

a plan/solution

x

2

if and only if

the two following

conditions are true:

x

1

is no worse than x

2

in all objectives,

i.e. f

j

(x

1

) ≤ f

j

(x

2

)

j=1,...,

M.

x

1

is strictly better than x

2

in at least one objective

,

i.e. f

j

(

x

) < f

j

(x

2

) for at least one j

{1,...,M}.

Inverse Optimisation and Planning

A Multi-Objective (MO) Problem

Among a set of solutions

P,

the

non-dominated set of

solutions

P'

are those that

are

not dominated

by any other member of the set

P:

The Pareto Optimal Set

.

When the set

P is

the entire feasible search space then the set

P'

is called

the global

Pareto Optimal Set

.

The image

f(x) of the

Pareto Optimal Set

is called the

Pareto Front (PF)

.

The

Pareto Optimal Set

is defined in the

parameter space

, while the

Pareto Front

is

defined in the

Objective Space

.
