Multi-objective evolutionary computation for topology coverage assessment problem

作者:

Highlights:

• Formally proposed and modeled the Topology Coverage Assessment Problem (TCAP).

• Empirically studied the mutual-promoting relations between subproblems of TCAP.

• Proposed the MoCover method for simultaneous optimizing subproblems in TCAP.

• MoCover MOEA obtains high-quality result about each cardinality in one algorithm run.

• The MOEA obtains better vertex cover number result owing to exploiting the relations.
