Custom Archives

Creating custom archive implementations for specialized optimization scenarios.

Note

📝 Under Development: This section is planned for future development. For now, see the Distance-Based Archive Tutorial guide for an example of advanced archive implementation.

Overview

Custom archives allow you to implement specialized storage and selection strategies for optimization problems with unique requirements.

Planned Topics

  • Archive Interface: Understanding the base Archive class

  • Selection Strategies: Implementing custom selection criteria

  • Memory Management: Efficient storage for large solution sets

  • Hybrid Approaches: Combining multiple selection mechanisms

  • Domain-Specific Archives: Archives optimized for specific problem types

Examples to be Covered

  • Quality-Based Archives: Selection based on multiple quality metrics

  • Constraint-Aware Archives: Handling constrained optimization problems

  • Dynamic Archives: Archives that adapt during optimization

  • Multi-Criteria Archives: Complex trade-off management
