Inverse Optimisation and Planning

A Multi-Objective (MO) Problem

Trade-off between three objectives (objective functions) for a prostate implant:

f

1

:

PTV coverage

,

f

2

:

urethra overdose

and

f

3

:

rectum overdose

.

There resulting

three two-dimensional projections

are shown. These show the

trade-off

between

two objectives in each case.

While for two objectives a solution very close to the optimal can be found, this becomes more difficult

as more objectives are considered.

The complexity of the

Pareto Front

increases rapidly with the

number of objectives / objective functions

.
