Semantics-Guided Automatic Tensorization for Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms: A Multi-Agent Framework

Abstract

Multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) naturally expose population-level parallelism, but many mature implementations encode their computation in sequential program structures designed for central processing units. Exploiting modern tensor computing platforms therefore requires more than direct code translation: the implementation must be restructured without changing the defining optimization mechanism of the underlying MOEA. We formulate automatic tensorization for MOEAs as semantics-guided computational restructuring and develop Evolutionary Code Conversion (EvoCoCo), a multi-agent framework that realizes this formulation. EvoCoCo reconstructs algorithm-specific states, dependencies, operators, and update logic into a structured semantic representation and organizes them through a shared tensorization blueprint. Specialized transformation branches then explore alternative tensor realizations, while execution feedback guides validation, repair, and candidate selection. Experiments on a benchmark of 48 MOEAs evaluate migration reliability, optimization fidelity, and computational scalability. Under matched large language model backends, EvoCoCo attains higher migration reliability than direct one-shot translation. Across the benchmark suites, 88.2% of valid comparisons satisfy the predefined optimization-fidelity criterion. The tensorized implementations also exhibit increasing acceleration on graphics processing units as population size or decision dimension grows, with median measured speedups ranging from $22.6\times$ under population scaling to $80.2\times$ under decision-dimension scaling. External-source and ablation studies further assess transfer beyond the main benchmark and the roles of the major framework components.
