The Metaheuristics Stream at OR64 Annual Conference will focus on theory and practice-oriented studies on:
* Design of metaheuristics and nature-inspired algorithms including evolutionary and population-based search methods and their implementation in real-life applications
* Hybrid metaheuristics and the intersection of metaheuristics and other related areas including parallel computing, quantum computing, data science and machine learning
* Systems to build systems, hyper-heuristics, adaptive/self-adaptive/multi-level metaheuristics
* Extensible and white-box metaheuristics
* Developing the theoretical/analytical foundations of (meta/hyper-)heuristics
This stream welcomes all working or interested in developing knowledge and excitement about the general field of metaheuristics. It will improve your understanding of the latest advancements in the field, deepen your appreciation of metaheuristics as a problem-solving method, and it will guide you in your search for an opportunity to contribute to the literature of metaheuristics in the future.
Key dates:
