Closed-loop optimization deals with problems in which candidate solutions are evaluated by conducting experiments, e.g. physical or biochemical experiments. Although this form of optimization is becoming more popular across the sciences, it may be subject to rather unexplored re…
Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) belong to the class of population based optimisation algorithms. They are motivated by the idea of discovering and exploiting the interaction between variables in the solution. They estimate a probability distribution from population …
Although traditionally Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs) have been regarded as static sensor arrays used mainly for environmental monitoring, recently, its applications have undergone a paradigm shift from static to more dynamic environments, where nodes are attached to moving obje…
With the ever-increasing complexity of sound synthesisers, there is a growing demand for automated parameter estimation and sound space navigation techniques. This thesis explores the potential for evolutionary computation to automatically map known sound qualities onto the para…

This book presents the proceedings of 8th International Conference on Frontiers of Intelligent Computing: Theory and Applications (FICTA 2020), which aims to bring together researchers, scientists, engineers and practitioners to share new ideas and experiences in the domain of i…
This book focuses on the idea of how to apply bio-inspired principles into VANET routing to improve road safety, and to ensure QoS of vehicular applications. Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) play a key role developing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), aiming to achieve…
Real-world engineering problems often require concurrent optimization of several design objectives, which are conflicting in cases. This type of optimization is generally called multi-objective or multi-criterion optimization. The area of research that applies evolutionary metho…
