Abstract :
A heuristic can have a certain number of control parameters. Since the setting of these parameters is often of crucial importance to the performance of the heuristic, much effort has been made to study how to tune these parameters. Perhaps the most popular approach is to tune them manually by trial and error. Such an approach requires algorithmic expertise and domain knowledge which an end-user might not have.
