Heuristics are widely used for dealing with complex search and optimization problems. However, manual design of heuristics can be often very labour extensive and requires rich working experience and knowledge. This paper proposes Evolution of Heuristic (EoH), a novel evolutionary paradigm that leverages both Large Language Models (LLMs) and Evolutionary Computation (EC) methods for Automatic Heuristic design (AHD). EoH represents the ideas of heuristics in natural language, termed thoughts. They are then translated into executable codes by LLMs. The evolution of both thoughts and codes in an evolutionary search framework makes it very effective and efficient for generating high-performance heuristics. Experiments on three widely studied combinatorial optimization benchmark problems demonstrate that EoH outperforms commonly used handcrafted heuristics and other recent AHD methods including FunSearch. Particularly, the heuristic produced by EoH with a low computational budget (in terms of the number of queries to LLMs) significantly outperforms widely-used human hand-crafted baseline algorithms for the online bin packing problem.

The learning-based underwater image enhancement, which is suitable for batch processing, is a pivotal research direction in underwater image processing. Extensive paired image data are required in existing learning-based methods, which necessitate considerable preprocessing and hinder the application of these methods. To address these limitations, we propose a semi-supervised approach called UWM-Net: firstly, we use a compact dataset of underwater image pairs to train the Mixture Density Network (MDN) with an underwater scene setting; subsequently, U-Net can learn underwater image enhancement more efficiently. The MDN can transform standard images into underwater scenes, reducing the reliance on paired data and making much smaller training datasets. In experimental studies, UWM-Net using only 18 pairs of underwater image data achieves highly competitive results in terms of 3 metrics compared with advanced models.
