Abstract
A user-preference-enabling (UPE) method optimizes operations of a system based on user preferences. The operations of the system are modeled as a user-preference-based multi-objective optimization (MOO) problem having multiple object functions subject to a set of constraints. The set of constraints include system constraints and a wish list specifying a respective user-preferred range of values for one or more of the objective functions. The UPE method calculates a wish list feasible solution (WL-feasible solution) to the user-preference-based MOO problem. The UPE method can be performed iteratively to compute targeted Pareto-optimal solutions. The UPE method can be used in a hybrid method in combination with other numerical methods to reliably compute feasible solutions of both conventional MOO problems and user-preference-based MOO problems.
