1//! MOEA/D (Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm based on Decomposition)
2//!
3//! Decomposes a multi-objective optimization problem into a set of scalar
4//! optimization subproblems using weight vectors and solves them simultaneously
5//! in a collaborative manner through neighborhood relationships.
6//!
7//! Key features:
8//! - Uniform weight vector generation for decomposition
9//! - Tchebycheff and weighted-sum scalarization approaches
10//! - Neighborhood-based mating and replacement
11//! - Differential evolution operators for offspring generation
12//! - Adaptive neighborhood size
13//!
