Advances in Hyper-Heuristics

2018
The previous chapters have introduced the four types of hyper-heuristics, presented the theoretical foundations and examined various applications of hyper-heuristics. This chapter provides an overview of some advanced topics and recent trends in hyper-heuristics, namely, hybrid hyper-heuristics, hyper-heuristics for automated design, automated design ...

A Multi-armed Bandit Hyper-Heuristic

2015 Brazilian Conference on Intelligent Systems (BRACIS), 2015
Hyper-heuristics are search methods that aim to solve optimization problems by selecting or generating heuristics. Selection hyper-heuristics choose from a pool of heuristics a good one to be applied at the current stage of the optimization process. The selection mechanism is the main part of a selection hyper-heuristic and have a great impact on its ...

Evolutionary multilabel hyper-heuristic design

2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), 2017
Nowadays, heuristics represent a commonly used alternative to solve complex optimization problems. This, however, has given rise to the problem of choosing the most effective heuristic for a given problem. In recent years, one of the most used strategies for this task has been the hyper-heuristics, which aim at selecting/generating heuristics to solve ...

Adaptive Thompson Sampling for hyper-heuristics

2016 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), 2016
There is an interest in search algorithms capable of learning and adapting their behaviour while solving a given problem. A hyper-heuristic operates on a set of predefined heuristics and applies a machine learning technique to predict which heuristic is the most effective to apply at a given point in time.

Constructive Hyper-heuristics in Class Timetabling

2005 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation, 2005
Evolutionary and stochastic problem solving techniques are often regarded with caution by end users because of their apparent fragility and slowness. Typically each problem is solved in isolation, and results are sensitive to parameters. Users may thus prefer easily understood but worse performing heuristic methods.

The importance of the learning conditions in hyper-heuristics

Proceedings of the 15th annual conference on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2013
Evolutionary Algorithms are problem solvers inspired by nature. The effectiveness of these methods on a specific task usually depends on a non trivial manual crafting of their main components and settings. Hyper-Heuristics is a recent area of research that aims to overcome this limitation by advocating the automation of the optimization algorithm ...
