A new Estimation of Distribution Algorithm based on multi - probability model for multi - objective optimization is presented. This algorithm guides searching Pareto - front of multi - objective optimization problem by using multi - probability model at each generation. Estimation of Distribution Algorithms use probabilistic model to search for problem' s optimal solutions, and using multi - probability model can maintain the diversity of multi - objective optimization problem's optimal set. This algorithm has the powerful ability of searching optimal, and the result can cover the Pareto - front. A set of experiments has been implemented to evaluate the performance of this algorithm by optimizing a group of test function set, and compare with other multi - objective optimization algorithms. The results show that the new algorithm presented can perform better in solving multi - objective optimization problems.
