A Feature-Independent Hyper-Heuristic Approach for Solving the Knapsack Problem

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in automatic learning mechanisms and applications. The concept of hyper-heuristics, algorithms that either select among existing algorithms or generate new ones, holds high relevance in this matter.

Selection hyper-heuristics in dynamic environments [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Operational Research Society, 2013
Current state-of-the-art methodologies are mostly developed for stationary optimization problems. However, many real-world problems are dynamic in nature, where different types of changes may occur over time. Population-based approaches, such as evolutionary algorithms, are frequently used for solving dynamic environment problems.

Hyper-heuristics: a survey of the state of the art [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Operational Research Society, 2013
Hyper-heuristics comprise a set of approaches that are motivated (at least in part) by the goal of automating the design of heuristic methods to solve hard computational search problems. An underlying strategic research challenge is to develop more generally applicable search methodologies.

Agent State Flipping Based Hybridization of Heuristic Optimization Algorithms: A Case of Bat Algorithm and Krill Herd Hybrid Algorithm

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
This paper describes a unique meta-heuristic technique for hybridizing bio-inspired heuristic algorithms. The technique is based on altering the state of agents using a logistic probability function that is dependent on an agent’s fitness rank.

Batched Mode Hyper-heuristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A primary role for hyper-heuristics is to control search processes based on moves generated by neighbourhood operators. Studies have shown that such hyper-heuristics can be effectively used, without modification, for solving unseen problem instances not only from a particular domain, but also on different problem domains.

A hyper-heuristic methodology to generate adaptive strategies for games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hyper-heuristics have been successfully applied in solving a variety of computational search problems. In this study, we investigate a hyper-heuristic methodology to generate adaptive strategies for games.

A Hyper-Heuristic for the Preemptive Single Machine Scheduling Problem to Minimize the Total Weighted Tardiness

open access: yesApplied Computer Systems, 2022
A problem of minimizing the total weighted tardiness in the preemptive single machine scheduling for discrete manufacturing is considered. A hyper-heuristic is presented, which is composed of 24 various heuristics, to find an approximately optimal ...
