In practical applications, multi-objective optimisation is one of the most challenging problems that engineers face. For this, Pareto-optimality is the most widely adopted concept, which is a set of optimal trade-offs between conflicting objectives without committing to a recommendation for decision-making. In this paper, a fast approach to Pareto-optimal solution recommendation is developed. It recommends an optimal ranking for decision-makers using a Pareto reliability index. Further, a mean average precision and a mean standard deviation are utilised to gauge the trend of the evolutionary process. A multi-objective artificial wolf-pack algorithm is thus developed to handle the multi-objective problem using a non-dominated sorting method (MAWNS). This is tested in a case study, where the MAWNS is employed as an optimiser for a widely adopted standard test problem, ZDT6. The results show that the proposed method works valuably for the multi-objective optimisations.
