H2-SLAN: A hyper-heuristic based on stochastic learning automata network for obtaining, storing, and retrieving heuristic knowledge

作者:

Highlights:

• We present a proposal of a hyper-heuristic model with learning based on stochastic automata networks.

• The model introduces new learning settings (on-line, off-line, and no learning).

• We introduce a Hyper-heuristic that is free from the abstractions employed by meta-heuristics.

• The model contributes to the reduction of the computational time spent in the optimization process.

• The model presents a different approach that allows configuration based on regular expressions.
