Selecting the right values for an algorithm’s parameters usually is a difficult, critical, and time-intensive endeavor. Though parameters can be traditionally adjusted in an empirical way, recent research indicates that automated tuning methods can frequently identify superior parameter configurations. In this sense, Racing Techniques emerge as a method of tuning hyperparameters and finding the best configurations for an algorithm. It is a time and resource efficient method. One of the more explored techniques in racing is the F-Race.ones. This work is a systematic literature review. The first section provides the context surrounding Racing Techniques. The second section explores the literature currently available on overall Racing Techniques and F-race, introducing all the essential concepts. The third section presents the research problem. The fourth section relates case studies of other works, being complemented by a bibliometric review that shows the growth of the concepts presented. The fifth and last section completes the work with the future paths for Racing Techniques, where opportunities arise in different fields of study, and provides the conclusions drawn.
