Summary: Evolutionary algorithms are among the most popular methods for solving optimisation problems. The use of metaheuristics emulating the natural evolution of living organisms dates back to the 1970s. In this study, a particular focus is put to use these evolutionary techniques to solve multi-objective optimisation problems. Based on a bibliometric and network analysis, the paper provides a review of 5,549 scientific publications (journal articles and book chapters) on the field before June 2019. The top contributing authors, journals, organisations, and countries are identified, as well as the most used key-words related to the topic. Then, the most influential papers are compared on the basis of citations and PageRank. The established research clusters and emergent research directions are also discussed.
