MHC Trade-off Front. Illustration of MAGMA on a non-contrived problem, a portion of the human MHC region. The approximation to the Pareto-optimal front produced by MAGMA is likely to be exact (see the description of the benchmark tests in the text). The solution produced by the heuristic (position in optimization space displayed by a yellow square) was used as a seed. The coverage function is expressed in units proportional to the probability of linkage detection (equation 1). The production of a trade-off front, such as this one, is a major advantage of using a multiobjective algorithm.
