    Over the past two decades, descent methods have received substantial attention within the multiobjective optimization field. Nonetheless, both theoretical analyses and empirical evidence reveal that existing first-order methods for multiobjective optimization converge slowly, even for well-conditioned problems, due to the objective imbalances. To address this limitation, we incorporate curvature information to scale each objective within … Read more

    Nonlinear conjugate gradient methods have recently garnered significant attention within the multiobjective optimization community. These methods aim to maintain consistency in conjugate parameters with their single-objective optimization counterparts. However, the preservation of the attractive conjugate property of search directions remains uncertain, even for quadratic cases, in multiobjective conjugate gradient methods. This loss of interpretability of … Read more

    Preconditioning is a powerful approach for solving ill-conditioned problems in optimization, where a preconditioning matrix is used to reduce the condition number and speed up the convergence of first-order method. Unfortunately, it is impossible to capture the curvature of all objective functions with a single preconditioning matrix in multiobjective optimization. Instead, second-order methods for multiobjective … Read more
