arXiv:2604.04940v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Designing effective heuristics for NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems remains challenging and often requires substantial domain expertise. Recent LLM-guided evolutionary methods have shown promise for automated heuristic generation, but most existing approaches refine heuristics independently or through limited pairwise feedback. We propose ReVEL: Multi-Turn Reflective LLM-Guided Heuristic Evolution via Structured Performance Feedback, a framework for group-wise multi-turn heuristic refinement. ReVEL organizes heuristics into behavio
