Abstract

Hyper-heuristic frameworks have emerged out of the shadows of meta-heuristic techniques. In this very active field, new frameworks are developed all the time. Shared common features that help to classify them in different types of hyper-heuristic. Similarly to an iceberg, this large subfield of artificial intelligence hide a sub-stantial amount of bio-inspired solvers and many research communities. In this paper, the tip of the iceberg is reviewed; recent hyper-heuristic frameworks are surveyed and the overall context of the field is presented. We believe its content complements recent reviews and offers another perspective of this important and developing field to the research community. Some hyper-heuristic frameworks tend to be largely constrained and prevent the state-of-the-art algorithms being obtained. We suggest in addition to relaxing constraints together with analysis of the evolved algorithms may lead to human-competitive result
