Title:
"Are you a Hybrid? Yes, of course, everyone is a Hybrid nowadays!"

Summary:
During the last decade, research on metaheuristics in the context of
combinatorial optimization has experienced an interesting shift
towards the hybridization of metaheuristics with other techniques for
optimization. At the same time, the focus of research has changed from
being rather algorithm-oriented to being more problem-oriented. The
focus is nowadays rather on solving a problem at hand, and not so much
about promoting a certain metaheuristic. This has led to an enormously
fruitful cross-fertilization of different areas of optimization,
algorithmics, mathematical modeling, operations research, statistics,
simulation, and other fields. This cross-fertilization has resulted in
a multitude of powerful hybrid algorithms that were obtained by
combining metaheuristics with mathematical programming, dynamic
programming, constraint programming, and lately also with machine
learning. Nowadays nearly all high-performance optimization techniques
in combinatorial optimization are hybrids. In this talk we provide a
short glimpse on some recent developments from this field.
