Heuristics

Approachs to problem solving, learning, or discovery that employs practical methods and algorithms not guaranteed to be optimal or perfect, but sufficient for finding good solutions.

Mathematical programming

A branch of mathematics concerned with the theory and methods for solving problems on finding the global optima of functions under linear and/or non-linear constraints.

Evolutionary algorithms

Population-based metaheuristic optimization algorithm that employes mechanisms inspired by biological evolution, such as reproduction, mutation, recombination, and selection.

Computational intelligence

A branch of Artificial Intelligence that address complex real-world problems to which mathematical programming or traditional modelling techniques can be useless.
