Class SequentialObjectiveAssignmentStrategy

java.lang.Object
  net.sourceforge.cilib.moo.criterion.objectiveassignmentstrategies.SequentialObjectiveAssignmentStrategy

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, ObjectiveAssignmentStrategy, Cloneable

public class SequentialObjectiveAssignmentStrategy
extends Object
implements ObjectiveAssignmentStrategy

Sequentially assigns the sub-objectives of a MOOptimisationProblem to different PopulationBasedAlgorithm instances. Thus, sub-objective 1 will be assigned to PopulationBasedAlgorithm 1, sub-objective 2 will be assigned to PopulationBasedAlgorithm 2 and so on. If there are more PopulationBasedAlgorithms than the number of sub-objectives then the assignment process will wrap and start from the first sub-objective again until every PopulationBasedAlgorithm is assigned a sub-objective.

Method Detail

getClone

public SequentialObjectiveAssignmentStrategy getClone()

Description copied from interface: Cloneable

Create a cloned copy of the current object and return it. In general the created copy will be a deep copy of the provided instance. As a result this operation an be quite expensive if used incorrectly.

Specified by:

getClone in interface ObjectiveAssignmentStrategy

Specified by:

getClone in interface Cloneable

Returns:

An exact clone of the current object instance.
