Abstract

Viability theory is a very attractive theoretical approach for the modeling of complex dynamical systems. However, its scope of application is limited due to the high computational power it necessitates. Evolutionary computation is a convenient way to address some issues related to this theory. In this paper, we present a multiobjective evolutionary approach to address the optimisation problem related to the computation of optimal command profiles of a complex process. The application we address here is a real size problem from dairy industry, the modeling of a Camembert cheese ripening process. We have developed a parallel implementation of a multiobjective EA that has produced a Pareto front of optimal control profiles (or trajectories), with respect to four objectives. The Pareto front was then analysed by an expert who selected a interesting compromise, yielding a new control profile that seems promising for industrial applications.
