Genetic Algorithms and Evolutionary Computation are effective techniques, for achieving optimal or near optimal solutions which have gained explicit attention of researchers over the last decade, and is still growing each year. Many current research areas in Case-Based Reasoning such as case adaptation, feature selection, feature weight selection, and case injection among others can be solved using optimization techniques. However, despite work combining these two algorithms since the early 1990’s, cross communication and collaboration between the two areas has diminished. This workshop is dedicated to the interplay between Evolutionary Computations and CBR. The goal of this workshop is to foster communication between researchers in these two areas and provide a forum to identify opportunities and challenges in both Evolutionary Computation and CBR which can be solved using each other.
We are looking for methods and techniques that exploit evolutionary computation for the benefit of Case-based reasoning (CBR) or vice versa. We particularly welcome contributions in areas that include, but are not limited to, the list of topics below. Please see our website for more information: https://www.adventiumlabs.com/evocbr2018
Submission Guidelines
Submissions should be original papers that have not already been published elsewhere. However, papers may include previously published results that support a new theme, as long as all past publications are fully referenced.
All papers are to be submitted via the EasyChair system. Paper submissions should be formatted using the ICCBR Conference format (LNCS). Author's instructions, along with LaTeX and Word macro files, are available at Springer's website.
We would like the Abstract of the paper and some keywords to be submitted about a week before the deadline so that we can start the reviewer bidding process.
