20.500.12556/DiRROS-31089 Beyond metaphors rethinking metaphors in metaheuristics algorithm design Although research in metaheuristics has become increasingly automated, considerable effort is still devoted to identifying new sources of inspiration for the manual design of so-called metaphor-based algorithms. In this work, we critically examine the use of metaphor-based design and its ongoing influence on the field of metaheuristics. We argue that manually designing algorithms based on metaphors belongs to the past, and that the field must move towards a more scientific and automated future. metaphor-based algorithms metaheuristics metaforični algoritmi metahevristika true false true Springer Nature Združeno kraljestvo Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik © The Author(s) 2026 Neznano 2026-07-10 14:38:33 2026-07-10 14:38:33 2026-07-11 03:51:19 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 3. 6. 2026; str. 1-4 [article no.] 34 Vol. 2 2026 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2025-06-13 2026-02-24 2026-03-11 519.8 3005-1460 10.1038/s44387-026-00089-z 280288003 https://www.nature.com/articles/s44387-026-00089-z 1 455f22be-7c5c-11f1-b663-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=47883 RAZ_Camacho_Villalon_Christian_Leonardo_2026.pdf RAZ_Camacho_Villalon_Christian_Leonardo_2026.pdf 1 7E16493300B140236A82D7B9355D89EA 0719b813b903f8a793523878bd5e1479a702b404f91595e8125a423b1b62abc1 88e643bb-7c5c-11f1-b663-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=47884 Institut Jožef Stefan 0 0 0
