Deep reinforcement learning for multi‐restart metaheuristics: an environment design for a hybrid of unbiased exploratory search and covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Multi‐restart metaheuristics can be highly effective for complex optimization problems, yet their performance depends critically on how restarts and algorithmic parameters are selected. This paper introduces a reinforcement learning approach for managing restart‐level decisions and parameter configurations in the UES–CMA‐ES hybrid ...
