Abstract

Hyper-heuristics aim to provide heuristic algorithms of a higher level of generality that produce good results for all problems in a domain rather than just for one or two problem instances but poor results for the others. Cross-domain hyper-heuristics extend this scope of generality across domains. These hyper-heuristics aim at producing good results across problems for different domains rather than for one domain and poor results for another domain. This research has essentially focused on solving discrete combinatorial optimization problems.
