    Hyper-Heuristics: a Survey and Taxonomy
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Kucukyilmaz, Tayfun; Talbi, El-Ghazali; Dokeroglu, Tansel
    Hyper-heuristics are search techniques for selecting, generating, and sequencing (meta)-heuristics to solve challenging optimization problems. They differ from traditional (meta)-heuristics methods, which primarily employ search space-based optimization strategies. Due to the remarkable performance of hyper-heuristics in multi-objective and machine learning-based optimization, there has been an increasing interest in this field. With a fresh perspective, our work extends the current taxonomy and presents an overview of the most significant hyper-heuristic studies of the last two decades. Four categories under which we analyze hyperheuristics are selection hyper-heuristics (including machine learning techniques), low-level heuristics, target optimization problems, and parallel hyper-heuristics. Future research prospects, trends, and prospective fields of study are also explored.

    An Island Parallel Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm
    (Springer London Ltd, 2022) Dokeroglu, Tansel; Sevinc, Ender
    The Harris hawk optimization (HHO) is an impressive optimization algorithm that makes use of unique mathematical approaches. This study proposes an island parallel HHO (IP-HHO) version of the algorithm for optimizing continuous multi-dimensional problems for the first time in the literature. To evaluate the performance of the IP-HHO, thirteen unimodal and multimodal benchmark problems with different dimensions (30, 100, 500, and 1000) are evaluated. The implementation of this novel algorithm took into account the investigation, exploitation, and avoidance of local optima issues effectively. Parallel computation provides a multi-swarm environment for thousands of hawks simultaneously. On all issue cases, we were able to enhance the performance of the sequential version of the HHO algorithm. As the number of processors increases, the suggested IP-HHO method enhances its performance while retaining scalability and improving its computation speed. The IP-HHO method outperforms the other state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms on average as the size of the dimensions grows.
