Meta-Heuristics: An Overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Meta-heuristics are the most recent development in approximate search methods for solving complex optimization problems, that arise in business, commerce, engineering, industry, and many other areas. A meta-heuristic guides a subordinate heuristic using concepts derived from artificial intelligence, biological, mathematical, natural and physical ...

A new population initialisation method based on the Pareto 80/20 rule for meta‐heuristic optimisation algorithms

open access: yesIET Software, 2021
In this research, a new method for population initialisation in meta‐heuristic algorithms based on the Pareto 80/20 rule is presented. The population in a meta‐heuristic algorithm has two important tasks, including pushing the algorithm toward the real ...
