University of Adelaide

Our institute collaborates with researchers from The University of Adelaide, SA, Australia in various ways for several years.

Associate Professor Dr. Markus Wagner organized several workshops with us, including (BOCIA'18, BB-DOB@GECCO'18, BB-DOB@PPSN'18), BEADO'19Good, BENCHMARK@PPSN'20, BENCHMARK@GECCO'20, and BOCIA'21, as well as a journal special issue on Benchmarking of Computational Intelligence Algorithms. He has visited us for two research stays in 2017 and 2018, during which we collaborated on several topics. In his 2017 visit, he also gave two presentations. and in 2021, Prof. Weise gave a guest lesson on "Comparing Optimization Algorithm" in his course "Evolutionary Computation."

For several years, we have also collaborated with Prof. Dr. Zbigniew Michalewicz with whom Prof. Weise co-edited the book Variants of Evolutionary Algorithms for Real-World Applications (ISBN: 978-3-642-23423-1, Springer, 2012, doi:10.1007/978-3-642-23424-8). Prof. Weise is also a member of the Scientific Advisory Board of Prof. Michalewicz' company Complexica, an Artificial Intelligence software company that helps large organizations sell more products and services, and reduce their labor costs and headcount through the use of automated analytics. Complexica is a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence software for optimizing sales & marketing activities, ranging from promotional planning, pricing, and product mix optimization, through to sales force automation, CRM, and multi-channel quoting and order processing.
