Dit proefschrift werd (mede) mogelijk gemaakt met financiële steun van de Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO) Key to defining effective and efficient optimization algorithms is exploiting problem structure and other problem-specific information.Sometimes, such problemspecific knowledge is well-defined and known a-priori.This is referred to as whitebox optimization.While a white-box setting approach can be very efficient, algorithms exploiting problem-specific information are very often highly-tailored to deal with only the problem at hand making it difficult to generalize them to other problems.Additionally, problem information may be unknown, incomplete, or incomprehensible prior to optimization.This is referred to as the black-box setting.In 1.
