Examination timetabling using late acceptance hyper-heuristics
— A hyperheuristic is a high level problem solving methodology that performs a search over the space generated by a set of low level heuristics. One of the hyperheuristic framewo...

On-line evolutionary computation for reinforcement learning in stochastic domains
In reinforcement learning, an agent interacting with its environment strives to learn a policy that specifies, for each state it may encounter, what action to take. Evolutionary c...
