Abstract
A method is described for using a computer for optimizing formulations against a number of criteria. A model algorithm is provided for each of the criteria, each model algorithm providing a prediction for a corresponding criteria when a candidate formulation is inputted into the model algorithm. Criteria are selected to optimize a set of candidate formulations. An algorithm is provided for optimization of the set of candidate formulations in accordance with the selected criteria. A first set of candidate formulations is provided and the optimization algorithm generates one or more new candidate formulations. All candidate formulations are inputted into the number of model algorithms to obtain predictions, and information of the set of candidate formulations obtained by generation and/or previous optimizations and/or experiments is used to select candidate formulations from the set to obtain a Pareto optimal set of candidate formulations.
