Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to collect high-quality original research papers and reviews in the field of Swarm Intelligence and Evolutionary Computation. We encourage researchers to contribute with their latest developments, or to invite relevant experts and colleagues to do so. New and improved versions of well-sedimented algorithms are welcome, as well as applications to real-word problems. The authors should provide a comprehensive and scientifically sound overview of the most recent research and methodological approaches. Both experimental and methodological contributions are welcome.
In this regard, this Special Issue aims to encourage both academic and industrial researchers to present their latest findings concerning the previously cited aspects, which can significantly contribute to the achievement of new methods to develop algorithms, processes and devices.
The Editors of this Special Issue welcome submissions that address issues including, but not limited to:
- Swarm intelligence;
- Evolutionary algorithms;
- Nature-inspired algorithms;
- Combinatorial optimization;
- Binary optimization;
- Real-world applications;
- Feature selection;
- Clustering;
- Classification;
- Reinforced learning;
- Time series forecasting.
