Call For Papers

1. Introduction
With the over-flooding of big data, researchers and practitioners have started showing remarkable interest to explore the data space, and have considered that structuralized knowledge reasoning is an effective computational paradigm for dealing with big data tasks. Granular computing (GC) focuses on the knowledge representation and reasoning with information granules, and fuzzy sets and rough sets are two crucial branches of GC. Fuzzy set theory was introduced to represent concepts with ambiguous boundaries and to understand the processes of complex human reasoning. It has become a popular tool for the design of fuzzy classifiers. Rough set theory was presented to quantitatively analyze the uncertainty and to process incomplete knowledge. It can find a decision-making table between the strict statistics and random distribution. Since RST can typically describe the uncertainty of knowledge, it has been extensively used in data mining, knowledge discovery, and intelligent system. It is a promising line of work for the design of efficient granular computing model and method for handling big data.

The global search performed by evolutionary computation algorithms frequently provides a valuable complement to the local search of non-evolutionary methods, and combinations of granular computing and evolutionary computation often show particular promise in practice. Evolutionary computation for granular computing emphasizes the utility of different evolutionary algorithms to various facets of granular computing, ranging from theoretical analysis to real-life applications. The main motivation for applying evolutionary algorithms to granular computing tasks in the knowledge reasoning is that they are robust and adaptive search methods, which can perform a global search in the space of candidate solutions. It has been a hot trend to address the classical and new-emerging granular computing problems by using different evolutionary algorithms. The benefits of exploring the combination of granular computing and evolutionary computation in the knowledge reasoning scenario will have an impact in multiple research disciplines and industry domains, including transportation, communications, social network, medical health, and so on.
