For multimodal multi-objective optimization problems (MMOPs), there are multiple equivalent Pareto optimal solutions in the decision space that are corresponding to the same objective value. Therefore, the main tasks of multimodal multi-objective optimization (MMO) are to find a high-quality PF approximation in the objective space and maintain the population diversity in the decision space. To achieve the above objectives, this article proposes a zoning search-based multimodal multi-objective brain storm optimization algorithm (ZS-MMBSO). At first, the search space segmentation method is employed to divide the search space into some sub-regions. Moreover, a novel individual generation strategy is incorporated into the multimodal multi-objective brain storm optimization algorithm, which can improve the search performance of the search engineering. The proposed algorithm is compared with five famous multimodal multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MMOEAs) on IEEE CEC2019 MMOPs benchmark test suite. Experimental results indicate that the overall performance of the ZS-MMBSO is the best among all competitors.
