This is the first book primarily dedicated to clustering using multiobjective genetic algorithms with extensive real-life applications in data mining and bioinformatics. The authors first offer detailed introductions to the relevant techniques – genetic algorithms, multiobjective optimization, soft computing, data mining and bioinformatics. They then demonstrate systematic applications of these techniques to real-world problems in the areas of data mining, bioinformatics and geoscience. The authors offer detailed theoretical and statistical notes, guides to future research, and chapter summaries.

这是第一本主要致力于使用多目标遗传算法进行聚类的书，在数据挖掘和生物信息学中有着广泛的实际应用。作者首先详细介绍了相关技术——遗传算法、多目标优化、软计算、数据挖掘和生物信息学。然后，他们展示了这些技术在数据挖掘、生物信息学和地球科学领域的实际问题中的系统应用。作者提供了详细的理论和统计说明、未来研究指南和章节总结。
