## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper proposes a multiobjective multitasking optimization evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition with dual neighborhood. In our proposed algorithm, each subproblem not only maintains a neighborhood based on the Euclidean distance among weight vectors within its own task, but also keeps a neighborhood with subproblems of other tasks. Gray relation analysis is used to define neighborhood among subproblems of different tasks. In such a way, relationship among different subproblems can be effectively exploited to guide the search. Experimental results show that our proposed algorithm outperforms four state-of-the-art multiobjective multitasking evolutionary algorithms and a traditional decomposition-based multiobjective evolutionary algorithm on a set of test problems.
