Abstract

To address knowledge transfer restricted to strictly aligned dimensions, underutilization of information from misaligned dimensions, negative transfer, and late-stage local optima in multitask optimization, this study developed an adaptive dimension learning and dynamic opposition-based learning algorithm for multitask optimization (ADOMTO) . The adaptive dimension learning strategy constructed a dimension correspondence matrix for intra-task and inter-task mappings, switched among intra-task aligned learning, intra-task reordered learning, and inter-task transfer based on historical improvements, and exploited transferable knowledge from misaligned dimensions. The dynamic opposition-based learning strategy adjusted the stagnation threshold during evolution and applied quasi-opposition-based learning to stagnant individuals to escape local optima. Compared with OTMTO, BLKT-DE, MMLMTO, and other state-of-the-art algorithms, ADOMTO achieved at least 12 wins and at most five losses on CEC17-MTSO, and at least 14 wins and at most four losses on CEC22-MTSO. ADOMTO exploits transferable knowledge from misaligned dimensions, mitigates negative transfer and search stagnation, and maintains high accuracy and robustness.
