Classifying Metaheuristics: Towards a unified multi-level classification system

Abstract: Metaheuristics provide the means to approximately solve complex optimisation problems when exact optimisers cannot be utilised. This led to an explosion in the number of novel metaheuristics, most of them metaphor-based, using nature as a source of inspiration. Thus, keeping track of their capabilities and innovative components is an increasingly difficult task. This can be resolved by an exhaustive classification system. Trying to classify metaheuristics is common in research, but no consensus on a classifica… Show more

“…The performance of a solution in each criterion is not enough, and an analysis that considers all criteria together must support this process. Moreover, the objectives may potentially conflict and concur with each other [19,24,[40][41][42]46,47]. Thus, MOCOPs require additional efforts to assess, compare, and determine which solution performs better than others, balancing multiple criteria.…”

“…The classification of metaheuristics is a fuzzy and debatable topic. There are various ways and distinct dimensions to classify the metaheuristics [12,15,19,53,57,[60][61][62]. Some researchers generally choose the most appropriate classification criteria according to their point of view or work [12,19,62].…”
