org.moeaframework.analysis.tools.ReferenceSetMerger
public class ReferenceSetMerger extends CommandLineUtility
Utility for merging two or more populations identified by unique sources and determining the contribution of each source to the combined non-dominated population. A command line interface is also provided.
