What Is Metaheuristic
In the fields of computer science and mathematical optimization, a metaheuristic is a higher-level procedure or heuristic designed to find, generate, tune, or select a heuristic that may provide a sufficiently good solution to an optimization problem or a machine learning problem. This is especially useful in situations where there is incomplete or imperfect information or limited computation capacity. Metaheuristics take a small sample from a much larger pool of potential solutions, which would otherwise be impossible to completely enumerate or otherwise investigate. It's possible that metaheuristics will make relatively few assumptions about the optimization problem that has to be solved, and as a result, they might be applicable to a wide range of issues.
