The Journal of Heuristics provides a forum for advancing the state-of-the-art in the theory and practical application of techniques for solving problems approximately that cannot be solved exactly. It fosters the development, understanding, and practical use of heuristic solution techniques for solving business, engineering, and societal problems. It considers the importance of theoretical, empirical, and experimental work related to the development of heuristics.The journal presents practical applications, theoretical developments, decision analysis models that consider issues of rational decision making with limited information, artificial intelligence-based heuristics applied to a wide variety of problems, learning paradigms, and computational experimentation.

《啟發(fā)式學(xué)雜志》提供了一個(gè)促進(jìn)理論和實(shí)際應(yīng)用技術(shù)的最新進(jìn)展的論壇，這些技術(shù)可以近似地解決無(wú)法精確解決的問(wèn)題。它促進(jìn)開發(fā)、理解和實(shí)際使用啟發(fā)式解決方案技術(shù)來(lái)解決業(yè)務(wù)、工程和社會(huì)問(wèn)題。它考慮了與啟發(fā)式發(fā)展相關(guān)的理論、經(jīng)驗(yàn)和實(shí)驗(yàn)工作的重要性。該雜志介紹了實(shí)際應(yīng)用、理論發(fā)展、考慮有限信息的理性決策問(wèn)題的決策分析模型、應(yīng)用于各種問(wèn)題的人工智能啟發(fā)式方法、學(xué)習(xí)范式和計(jì)算實(shí)驗(yàn)。
