This paper defines a new combinatorial optimization problem, namely General Combinatorial Optimization Problem (GCOP), whose decision variables are a set of parametric algorithmic components, i.e. algorithm design decisions. The solutions of GCOP, i.e. compositions of algorithmic components, thus represent different generic search algorithms. The objective of GCOP is to find the optimal algorithmic

The aim of network structural balance is to find proper partitions of nodes that guarantee equilibrium in the system, which has attracted considerable attention in recent decades. Most of existing studies focus on reducing imbalanced components in complex networks without considering the tolerance of these balanced networks against attacks and failures. However, as indicated by some recent studies

To represent a many-objective Pareto-optimal front having four or more dimensions of the objective space, a large number of points are necessary. However, for choosing a single preferred point from a large set is problematic and time-consuming, as they provide a large cognitive burden on the part of the decision-makers (DMs). Hence, many-objective optimization and decision-making researchers and practitioners

Recent years have witnessed remarkable successes of machine learning in various applications. However, machine learning models suffer from a potential risk of leaking private information contained in training data, which have attracted increasing research attention. As one of the mainstream privacy- preserving techniques, differential privacy provides a promising way to prevent the leaking of individual-level

Being able to extract effective features from different images is very important for image classification, but it is challenging due to high variations across images. By integrating existing well-developed feature descriptors into learning algorithms, it is possible to automatically extract informative high-level features for image classification. As a learning algorithm with a flexible representation

Owing to the continual growth of multimodal data (or feature spaces), we have seen a rising interest in multimedia applications (e.g., object classification and searching) over these heterogeneous data. However, the accuracy of classification and searching tasks is highly dependent on the distance estimation between data samples, and simple Euclidean (EU) distance has been proven to be inadequate.

Wireless big data contain valuable information on users' behaviors and preferences, which can drive the design and optimization for wireless systems. The fundamental issue is how to mine mobile intelligence and further incorporate them into wireless systems. To this end, this article discusses two challenges on big data based wireless system design and optimization, and proposes a unified framework

With the exponential expansion of the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, many state-of-the-art communication technologies are being developed to use the lowerpower but extensively deployed devices. Due to the limits of pure channel characteristics, most protocols cannot allow an IoT network to be simultaneously large-scale and energy-efficient, especially in hybrid architectures. However,

Ant colony optimization is a swarm intelligence metaheuristic inspired by the foraging behavior of some ant species. Ant colony optimization has been successfully applied to challenging optimization problems. This article investigates existing ant colony optimization algorithms specifically designed for combinatorial optimization problems with a dynamic environment. The investigated algorithms are

The explosive growth of wireless devices motivates the development of the internet-of-things (IoT), which is capable of interconnecting massive and diverse "things" via wireless communications. This is also called massive machine type communications (mMTC) as a part of the undergoing fifth generation (5G) mobile networks. It is envisioned that more sophisticated devices would be connected to form a

Fuzzy Sets and Systems is an area of computational intelligence, pioneered by Lotfi Zadeh over 50 years ago in a seminal paper in Information and Control. Fuzzy Sets (FSs) deal with uncertainty in our knowledge of a particular situation. Research and applications in FSs have grown steadily over 50 years. More recently, we have seen a growth in Type-2 Fuzzy Set (T2 FS) related papers, where T2 FSs are

Michigan-style learning classifier systems (M-LCSs) represent an adaptive and powerful class of evolutionary algorithms which distribute the learned solution over a sizable population of rules. However their application to complex real world data mining problems, such as genetic association studies, has been limited. Traditional knowledge discovery strategies for M-LCS rule populations involve sorting

When humans learn several skills to solve multiple tasks, they exhibit an extraordinary capacity to transfer knowledge between them. The authors present here the last enhanced version of a bioinspired reinforcement-learning (RL) modular architecture able to perform skill-to-skill knowledge transfer and called transfer expert RL (TERL) model. TERL architecture is based on a RL actor-critic model where

With the increasing complexity of network topologies and architectures, adding intelligence to the network control plane through Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI&ML) is becoming a trend in network development. For large-scale geo-distributed systems, determining how to appropriately introduce intelligence in networking is the key to high-efficiency operation. In this treatise, we explore

Internet of Energy (IoE), the paradigm of applying Internet of Things (IoT) to energy management systems, aims to improve energy systems' efficiency and reliability by enhancing connectivity and interoperability among geographically distributed energy devices. This requires distributed computational intelligence responsible for data processing and decision making of the energy devices. To achieve distributed

The ever-evolving informatics technology has gradually bounded human and computer in a compact way. Understanding user behavior becomes a key enabler in many fields such as sedentary-related healthcare, human-computer interaction and affective computing. Traditional sensor-based and vision-based user behavior analysis approaches are obtrusive in general, hindering their usage in real-world. Therefore

Over the past two decades, Evolutionary Multi-objective Optimization (EMO) algorithms have demonstrated their ability to find and maintain multiple trade-off solutions in two and three-objective problems, making EMO as one of the most emergent and exciting fields of research and application within Computational Intelligence (CI) area. The main reason for EMO's success is that the population-based EMO

Machine Intelligence (MI) technologies have revolutionized the design and applications of computational intelligence systems, by introducing remarkable scientific and technological enhancements across domains.

This paper analyzes the problem of figurative language detection on social media, with a focus on the use of semantic features for identifying irony and sarcasm. Framester, a novel resource that acts as a hub between FrameNet, WordNet, VerbNet, BabelNet, DBpedia, Yago, DOLCE-Zero and others, has been used to extract semantic features from text. These semantic features are used to enrich the representations

Tweets about everyday events are published on Twitter. Detecting such events is a challenging task due to the diverse and noisy contents of Twitter. In this paper, we propose a novel approach named Weighted Dynamic Heartbeat Graph (WDHG) to detect events from the Twitter stream. Once an event is detected in a Twitter stream, WDHG suppresses it in later stages, in order to detect new emerging events

In this paper, we introduce a new setting for graph embedding, which considers embedding communities instead of individual nodes. We find that community embedding is not only useful for community-level applications such as graph visualization but also provide an exciting opportunity to improve community detection and node classification. Specifically, we consider the interaction between community embedding
