Abstract: | For the first time, a running time analysis of a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm for a discrete optimization problem is given. To this end, a simple pseudo-Boolean problem ($ extsc{Lotz}$: leading ones - trailing zeroes) is defined and a population-based optimization algorithm (FEMO). We show, that the algorithm performs a black box optimization in $Theta(n^2 log n)$ function evaluations where $n$ is the number of binary decision variables. |
