No free lunch theorems for optimization

TL;DR: A framework is developed to explore the connection between effective optimization algorithms and the problems they are solving and a number of "no free lunch" (NFL) theorems are presented which establish that for any algorithm, any elevated performance over one class of problems is offset by performance over another class.
