International Conference on Optimization, Metaheuristics and Machine Learning (COMML2020)

10-12 April 2020, Xi'an, China

The International Conference on Optimization, Metaheuristics and Machine Learning (COMML2020) will be held in Xi'an, China, 10 to 12 April 2020. COMML 2020 intends to provide an interactive forum and foster discussions on the cross-disciplinary research and developments in optimization, nature-inspired metaheuristics, machine learning and data mining. Accepted papers will be published in a Proceedings by an International Publisher (to be approved).

COMML2020 will focus on new algorithms and methods, new trends, and latest developments in optimization, nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms, machine learning, data mining, statistical theories of algorithms, and a diverse range of applications in science, engineering, and industry.

Topics of interest (but not limited to):
* Optimization, algorithms and methods, and engineering optimization
* Nature-inspired computing, algorithms and applications
* Mathematical analysis of algorithms, complexity and simulations
* Statistical properties of algorithms, methods, comparison and sampling methods
* Metaheuristics and swarm intelligence (e.g., ant and bee algorithms, bat algorithm, cuckoo search,
firefly algorithm, genetic algorithms, PSO, simulated annealing, etc.)
* Computational intelligence, business intelligence, and intelligent computing
* Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning
* Neural networks, neural computing, neuro-computing, and non-conventional computing
* Data mining and data-driven applications
* Big data science, case studies and industrial applications
