Multiobjective subset selection node (NSGA-2)

Hi, 

Does anyone have a realistic example for the multiobjective subset selection node (NSGA-2)?

I am aware of what exists in the example server, but that does not provide a lot of context.

It appears this is suited for finding groups (subsets of rows) of compounds that have desired characteristics which can be optimally divergent. (Drug discovery)

I looked at it for a more traditional feature selection multifocal optimization (subsets of columns) pattern recognition problem.  The NSGA-2 algorithm is used for this but this node can't accomplish that goal.  At least I can't coax it to.

Perhaps this will be a future node.
