*** Scope and Topics
Partitioning points out techniques in which the samples are divided into different groups in terms of some criteria. Clustering is a special type of partitioning approach in which the samples are categorized into a group according to their similarities. Partitioning can be applied for different purposes in evolutionary computation, such as improving performance, finding a promising region, solving a large-scale problem, and finding a proper value for a specific parameter. Generally speaking, partitioning and clustering can be seen in different levels of an algorithm. The goal of this special session is the use of partitioning and clustering approaches for evolutionary computation, covering all different evolutionary paradigms. The aim is to investigate both the new theories and methods in different evolutionary paradigms in different domains, such as image processing, pattern recognition, scheduling, and transportation.
Authors are invited to submit their original and unpublished work to this special session; the topics of interest (but not limited) are the following:
- Random partitioning in evolutionary computation
- Dynamic sub-swarm number strategy in evolutionary computation
- Seed and distance-based partitioning techniques in evolutionary computation
- Hierarchical partitioning techniques in evolutionary computation
- Dynamic multi-population techniques in evolutionary computation
- Clustering-based multi-population techniques
- Multi-level clustering-based multi-population techniques
- Random partitioning with master-population
- Decomposition-based approaches in large-scale optimization
- Clustering approaches for finding proper parameter values
- Decomposition approaches in multi-objective evolutionary algorithms
- Decomposition approaches in Multi-modal multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithms
*** Important Dates
Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: January 15th, 2024 Paper Acceptance Notification: March 15th, 2024 Final Paper Submission & Early Registration: May 1st, 2024
The submission procedure, deadlines, and paper format are the same as the IEEE WCCI 2024 main conference. In particular, we recall that papers must be submitted through the IEEE WCCI 2024 online submission system while selecting the special session on Partitioning and Clustering for Evolutionary Computation under the list of Main research topics in the submission system.
