The minimisation of the Aggregated Objective Function

f

can be interpreted as finding the value

f

for which the line with slope

–w

1

/w

2

just touches the boundary of

F

as it proceeds outwards

from the origin.

Pareto Front

Create a single Objective Function via

weighted Aggregation

Inverse Optimisation and Planning

Empirically estimated penalisation schemes,

found to result to „good“ dose distributions are

ussually saved as

presets / protocols / class

solutions

and can be used as starting points for the

individual patient plan optimisation process.

w1 f1 + w2 f2

???

The plan/solution which is obtained in the

Weighted

Aggregation

approach depends on the shape of the

Pareto Front

and the

importance factors/penalties

used.

Planner is not aware if there exist a better

“choice”

on

the

Pareto Front

just next door!
