Abstract
At the start of a process, an information presenting section presents information expressed by a solution vector, while an auxiliary information presenting section presents information for facilitating comparative evaluation of multiple pieces of information being presented simultaneously. Based on these pieces of information, the user evaluates each solution vector. A model estimation executing section generates an evaluation model for an adjustment process from a user evaluation history, and thereafter, a model evaluation calculating section performs evaluation using the evaluation model. A fitness calculating section calculates fitness from the evaluation made by the user or by the model, and in accordance with the thus calculated fitness, a recombination operation section performs an arithmetical recombination operation. The above process is iteratively performed to carry out optimum adjustment of solution vectors.
