SUMMARY:MESS 2020+1 - Metaheuristics Summer School
DESCRIPTION:Call for Participation \n———————————————————————-\n– MESS 2020+1 – Metaheuristics Summer School\n– Learning & Optimization from Big Data –\n15-18 June 2021\, Catania\, Italy\n(virtual and onsite mode) \nhttps://www.ANTs-lab.it/mess2020/\nmess.school@ANTs-lab.it\nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/MetaheuristicsSchool/\n———————————————————————- \n** APPLICATION DEADLINE: 5th March 2021 ** \nhttps://www.ants-lab.it/mess2020/application/ \nMESS 2020+1 is aimed at qualified and strongly motivated MSc and PhD students; post-docs; young researchers\, and both academic and industrial professionals to provide an overview on the several metaheuristics techniques\, and an in-depth analysis of the state-of-the-art. The main theme of this edition is “Learning and Optimization from Big Data”\, therefore MESS 2020+1 wants to focus on (i) Learning for Metaheuristics; (ii) Optimization in Machine Learning; and (iii) how Optimization and Learning affect the Metaheuristics making them relevant in handling Big Data. \nParticipants will be delivered a certificate of attendance indicating the number of hours of lectures (36-40 hours of lectures). In according to the academic system all PhD and master students attending to the summer school will may get 8 ECTS points. \n** LIST OF LECTURERS & LECTURES TITLES \n+ Paolo Arena\, Unviersity of Catania\, Italy\nLecture#1: TBA\nLecture#2: TBA \n+ Angelo Cangelosi\, University of Manchester & Alan Turing Institute\, UK\nLecture#1: Cognitive and Developmental Robotics\, part 1\nLecture#2: Cognitive and Developmental Robotics\, part 2 \n+ Swagatam Das\, Indian Statistical Institute\, Kolkata\nLecture#1: Deep Generative Adversarial Networks and Their Application to Class-imbalanced Learning\nLecture#2: Non-convex Constrained Optimization – Some Advanced Approaches \n+ Luca Maria Gambardella\, IDSIA Istituto Dalle Molle for Artificial Intelligence\, Switzerland\nLecture#1: TBA\nLecture#2:  TBA \n+ Salvatore Greco\, University of Catania\, Italy & University of Portsmouth\, UK\nLecture#1: Preference Learning in Multicriteria Decision Support\nLecture#2: Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization Guided by Preference Learning \n+ Giuseppe F.

The top three of the competition ranking will receive the MESS 2020+1 prize. Students whose algorithm will rank in the top ten of the competition ranking will be invited to submit a manuscript of their work to be published in the special volume MESS 2020+1 of the AIRO Springer Series. \n** SHORT TALK & POSTER PRESENTATION \nAll participants may submit an abstract of their recent results\, or works in progress\, for presentation and having the opportunities for debate and interact with leaders in the field. Mini-Workshop Organizers and Scientific Committee will review the abstracts and will recommend for the format of the presentation (oral or poster). All abstracts will be published on the electronic hands-out book of the summer school. \nThe Abstracts must be submitted by *March 5\, 2020*. \n*See Previous Edition – MESS 2018* \nhttps://www.ants-lab.it/mess2018/ \n** MORE INFORMATION: \nhttps://www.ANTs-lab.it/mess2020/   —   mess.school@ANTs-lab.it \nFacebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MetaheuristicsSchool/ \nTwitter: https://twitter.com/MESS_school
