Hyper-Heuristic Based on ACO and Local Search for Dynamic Optimization Problems

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
Hyper-heuristics comprise a set of approaches that are motivated (at least in part) by the objective of intelligently combining heuristic methods to solve hard optimization problems.

A learning automata based multiobjective hyper-heuristic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Metaheuristics, being tailored to each particular domain by experts, have been successfully applied to many computationally hard optimisation problems. However, once implemented, their application to a new problem domain or a slight change in the problem

An Ant Colony based Hyper-Heuristic Approach for the Set Covering Problem

open access: yesAdvances in Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence Journal, 2015
The Set Covering Problem (SCP) is a NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that is challenging for meta-heuristic algorithms. In the optimization literature, several approaches using meta-heuristics have been developed to tackle the SCP and the ...

Sequence-Based Selection Hyper-Heuristic Model via MAP-Elites

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Although the number of solutions in combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) is finite, some problems grow exponentially and render exact approaches unfeasible. So, approximate methods, such as heuristics, are customary.

How Much Is Too Much? Facing Practical Limitations in Hyper-Heuristic Design for Packing Problems

open access: yesAlgorithms
Hyper-heuristics, or simply heuristics to choose heuristics, represent a powerful approach to tackling complex optimization problems. These methods decide which heuristic to apply throughout the solving process, aiming to improve the solving process ...

Intelligent System Design Using Hyper-Heuristics

open access: yesSouth African Computer Journal, 2015
Determining the most appropriate search method or artificial intelligence technique to solve a problem is not always evident and usually requires implementation of the different approaches to ascertain this. In some instances a single approach may not be

Algorithm Selection for Allocating Pods Within Robotic Mobile Fulfillment Systems: A Hyper-Heuristic Approach

open access: yesIEEE Access
Robotic Mobile Fulfillment Systems (RMFS) are an example of warehouse automation. Nonetheless, the complexity of RMFS is such that tackling the entire problem at once is unfeasible. So, this work focuses on a component known as the Pod Allocation Problem

HyperDE: An Adaptive Hyper-Heuristic for Global Optimization

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2023
In this paper, a novel global optimization approach in the form of an adaptive hyper-heuristic, namely HyperDE, is proposed. As the naming suggests, the method is based on the Differential Evolution (DE) heuristic, which is a well-established ...

A genetic programming hyper-heuristic for the multidimensional knapsack problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Purpose: Hyper-heuristics are a class of high-level search techniques which operate on a search space of heuristics rather than directly on a search space of solutions.

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.
