Abstract

Metaheuristics are designed to find, generate, or select a heuristic that can provide a sufficiently good solution to a complex optimization problem, especially with incomplete, imperfect, vague and imprecise information. Fuzzy set theory is an excellent tool to capture this kind of information. Metaheuristics can be used as important building blocks in humanoid robots together with fuzzy set theory. In this chapter, we present a literature review on metaheuristics used in modeling robots.
