Dear colleague,
the 22nd Conference of the International Federation of Operational Research Societies (IFORS 2020) will be held on June 21-26, 2020 in Seoul, South Korea; see http://www.ifors2020.kr/.
I am organizing the stream *Metaheuristics and Machine Learning (MHs & ML)*.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- MHs as ML techniques: Using MHs to solve typical ML problems like classification, clustering, or regression
- MHs applied in ML, for example to fit models, for feature selection, or to optimize model structures
- ML methods applied in MHs, for example for data-driven optimization, algorithm selection, parameter tuning, to guide the search, as surrogate objective function, and for learning problem structure
- Real world applications combining MH and ML aspects
- Issues of MH/ML hybrids including explainability, robustness, and trustworthiness
For this stream, we invite individual contributions as well as proposals for special sessions:
1.) Individual contributions
If you want to participate and give a talk, please upload an *abstract (max. 1500 characters)* at the IFORS 2020 submission platform https://www.euro-online.org/conf/ifors2020/) using the *Session Code aa598698*.
2.) Special session proposals
As a session organiser, your role will be to invite potential authors and select the talks to be given within your session on the basis of submitted abstracts. A session typically consists of four talks. If there are more than four speakers, it is still possible that the same organiser holds more than one session dedicated to the same topic.
If you are interested in organising a session, please contact me (see below) with a tentative title and description of your proposal. Once accepted, we will include your session in the electronic Abstract Submission System, and you can invite speakers to your session. A session can also have more than one organizers in case you want to join forces with a colleague.
The abstract submission deadline is January 17, 2020, so all abstracts of your session should be in the Abstract Submission System by this date.
IMPORTANT DATES:
Abstract Submission Deadline - January 17, 2020
Abstracts Accepted/Rejected Deadline - January 31, 2020
Early-bird Registration Deadline - February 28, 2020
Speakers Registration Deadline - March 1, 2020
If you know a colleague who might be interested to participate or to organize a session in this stream, please, feel free to forward this invitation.
In case of any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
With best regards,
Günther Raidl
