Scalarizing Multiobjective Optimization Problems
Scalarizing a multiobjective optimization problem means formulating a single-objective optimization problems such that optimal solutions to the single-objective optimization problem are Pareto optimal solutions to the multiobjective optimization problem. With different parameters for the scalarization, different Pareto optimal solutions are produced. A well-known example is the so-called linear scalarization (see, e.g.,)
where the weights of the objectives are the parameters of the scalarization.

Famous quotes containing the word problems:
“The question of place and climate is most closely related to the question of nutrition. Nobody is free to live everywhere; and whoever has to solve great problems that challenge all his strength actually has a very restricted choice in this matter. The influence of climate on our metabolism, its retardation, its acceleration, goes so far that a mistaken choice of place and climate can not only estrange a man from his task but can actually keep it from him: he never gets to see it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
