***********************
Dear colleagues,
We cordially invite you to submit a paper to the Special Session on
*Multiobjective
Optimization and Decision-Making in Bioinformatics and Bioengineering
(MODMBB) *at the 2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence in
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (CIBCB 2015) in Niagara Falls,
Canada.
We encourage submission of papers describing new concepts, strategies,
challenges and decision-making techniques in the area of Bioinformatics and
Bioengineering (BB). In addition, we are interested in application papers
discussing the power and applicability of these novel methods to real-world
multiobjective problems in BB. You are invited to submit papers that are
unpublished original work for this special session at CIBCB 2015. The
topics are, but not limited to, the following
* Multiobjective optimization techniques for Bioinformatics and
Bioengineering (BB) problems
- Multiobjective evolutionary algorithms
- Swarm Intelligence
- Metaheuristics
- Hybrid optimization algorithms (combinations of heuristics and exact
methods)
* Multicriteria decision making techniques for BB problems
- Preference elicitation and representation
- Aggregation-based techniques
- Fuzzy logic-based techniques
- Bayesian-based techniques
* Experimental multiobjective optimization of BB problems
- Experimental optimization platforms
- Closed-loop multiobjective challenges
- Resourcing issues (interruptions, missing objective function values,
changes of variables, etc.)
- Closed-loop multiobjective applications
* Learning in multiobjective optimization of BB problems
- Link between Decision Maker's learning and model's learning
- Capturing and learning from user preferences
- Integrating multiobjective optimization with machine learning
- Interactive multiobjective learning and optimization techniques
* Tuning of multiobjective optimization and decision-making techniques for
BB problems
- Performance measures
- Test and benchmark problems
- Visualization techniques
- Optimization and visualization software
* Emerging Topics in multiobjective optimization and decision-kaking in BB
- Novel applications (process design, manufacturing, etc)
- Novel challenges (large-scale problems, dynamic problems, mixed integer
problems, uncertainty, expensive and limited evaluations, etc)
- Bilevel and multilevel optimization
- Interactive visualization techniques
- Multiobjective data mining
- Predictive fitness landscape design
- Many-objective optimization
- Surrogate methods
Submission Instructions
