Abstract


This paper presents a new methodology to incorporate preferences in multiobjective problems through the definition of an ellipsoid-shapped region of interest. This new layer aplied to the optimization algorithm aims to help the decision making, as the method shows solutions according to the defined preferences.Futhermore, the ellipsoid shape allows the user to change the quantity of selected elements by changing the ellipsoid focus, expanding or shrinking the coverage area of the Pareto frontier.
