Direct MultiSearch (DMS)
A solver for derivative-free multiobjective optimization
DMS is a solver for multiobjective optimization problems which does not use any derivatives of
the objective functions. It is based on a novel technique called direct multisearch, developed
by extending direct search from single to multiobjective optimization. The current version
can deal with any type of constraints (all it is required from the user is a function
indicating weather a point is feasible or not).
- DMS (Version 0.3, January 2015) is written in Matlab.
- Version 0.3 (January 2015) of DMS can be obtained by sending an e-mail.
DMS is freely available for research,
educational or commercial use, under a GNU lesser general public license.
