Large-scale multi-objective optimization remains challenging because high-dimensional decision spaces, complex variable interactions, and limited function evaluation budgets make it difficult to balance convergence, diversity, and stability. Existing two-archive evolutionary algorithms can alleviate the conflict between convergence and diversity, but they often underuse archive reliability and problem-structure information, leading to inefficient search, incomplete front coverage, and late-stage archive drift. To address these issues, this paper proposes TRUST-TAEA, a trustworthiness-guided two-archive evolutionary algorithm. Archive trustworthiness is defined by integrating evolutionary progress with convergence-archive maturity, and is used to coordinate variable-grouping sparse search, anchor-probing compensatory search, and archive stabilization. TRUST-TAEA is evaluated on the LSMOP benchmark suite with 500--5000 decision variables and two or three objectives. Experimental results show that TRUST-TAEA achieves superior or highly competitive performance in terms of convergence, diversity, and stability. A three-objective day-ahead scheduling case of a grid-connected microgrid further demonstrates its practical applicability, where TRUST-TAEA obtains the best IGD$^+$ value and generates a feasible dispatch strategy balancing cost, emissions, and grid-power fluctuation.

Accurate power load forecasting is crucial for improving energy efficiency and ensuring power supply quality. Considering the power load forecasting problem involves not only dynamic factors like historical load variations but also static factors such as climate conditions that remain constant over specific periods. From the model-agnostic perspective, this paper proposes a parallel structure network to extract important information from both dynamic and static data. Firstly, based on complexity learning theory, it is demonstrated that models integrated through parallel structures exhibit superior generalization abilities compared to individual base learners. Additionally, the higher the independence between base learners, the stronger the generalization ability of the parallel structure model. This suggests that the structure of machine learning models inherently contains significant information. Building on this theoretical foundation, a parallel convolutional neural network (CNN)-gate recurrent unit (GRU) attention model (PCGA) is employed to address the power load forecasting issue, aiming to effectively integrate the influences of dynamic and static features. The CNN module is responsible for capturing spatial characteristics from static data, while the GRU module captures long-term dependencies in dynamic time series data. The attention layer is designed to focus on key information from the spatial-temporal features extracted by the parallel CNN-GRU. To substantiate the advantages of the parallel structure model in extracting and integrating multi-source information, a series of experiments are conducted.
