Description: |
Optimization problems are of great importance in many fields. They can be tackled, for example, by approximate algorithms such as meta heuristics. Examples of meta heuristics are simulated annealing, tabu search, and evolutionary computation. This book presents an overview of hybrid meta heuristics. |
Synopsis: |
Optimization problems are of great importance across a broad range of fields. They can be tackled, for example, by approximate algorithms such as metaheuristics. This book is intended both to provide an overview of hybrid metaheuristics to novices of the field, and to provide researchers from the field with a collection of some of the most interesting recent developments. The authors involved in this book are among the top researchers in their domain. |
