RDEx-MOP: Indicator-Guided Reconstructed Differential Evolution for Fixed-Budget Multiobjective Optimization

Multiobjective optimisation in the CEC 2025 MOP track is evaluated not only by final IGD values but also by how quickly an algorithm reaches the target region under a fixed evaluation budget. This report documents RDEx-MOP, the reconstructed differential evolution variant used in the IEEE CEC 2025 numerical optimisation competition (C06 special session) bound-constrained multiobjective track. RDEx-MOP integrates indicator-based environmental selection, a niche-maintained Pareto-candidate set, and complementary differential evolution operators for exploration and exploitation. We evaluate RDEx-MOP on the official CEC 2025 MOP benchmark using the released checkpoint traces and the median-target U-score framework. Experimental results show that RDEx-MOP achieves the highest total score and the best average rank among all released comparison algorithms, including the earlier RDEx baseline.
