This book comprises nine selected works on numerical and computational methods for solving multiobjective optimization, game theory, and machine learning problems. It provides extended versions of selected papers from various fields of science such as computer science, mathematics and engineering that were presented at EVOLVE 2013 held in July 2013 at Leiden University in the Netherlands. The internationally peer-reviewed papers include original work on important topics in both theory and applications, such as the role of diversity in optimization, statistical approaches to combinatorial...

Both startlingly restless and immaculately compact, Manazuru paints the portrait of a woman on the brink of her own memories and future.

Twelve years have passed since Kei's husband, Rei, disappeared and she was left alone with her three-year-old daughter. Her new relationship with a married man--the antithesis of Rei--has brought her life to a numbing stasis, and her relationships with her mother and daughter have spilled into routine, day after day. Kei begins making repeated trips to the seaside town of Manazuru, a place that jogs her memory to a moment in time she...

This book comprises selected research papers from the 2015 edition of the EVOLVE conference, which was held on June 18-June 24, 2015 in Iasi, Romania.

This book presents the state-of-the-art, current challenges, and future perspectives for the field of many-criteria optimization and decision analysis. The field recognizes that real-life problems often involve trying to balance a multiplicity of considerations simultaneously – such as performance, cost, risk, sustainability, and quality. The field develops theory, methods and tools that can support decision makers in finding appropriate solutions when faced withmany(typically more than three) such criteria at the same time.The book consists of two parts: key research topics, and emerging...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Evolutionary Multi-Criterion Optimization, EMO 2022 held in Leiden, The Netherlands, during March 20-24, 2023.The 44 regular papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions.The papers are divided into the following topical sections: Algorithm Design and Engineering; Machine Learning and Multi-criterion Optimization; Benchmarking and Performance Assessment; Indicator Design and Complexity Analysis; Applications in Real World Domains; and Multi-Criteria Decision Making...
