Online metaheuristic algorithm selection

open access: yesExpert Systems with Applications, 2022
The performance of optimization algorithms significantly depends on the landscape of the problems. It is known that there is no single algorithm that outperforms others on problems with different fitness landscapes. One of the issues in metaheuristic algorithms is keeping the balance between exploration and exploitation.
