Computational intelligence methods for complex systems

Objective

The proposed Early Stage Research Training Project focuses on the training of young scientists to the use of computational intelligence techniques for the treatment of complex systems in science and engineering. Computational Intelligence provides a set of techniques to understand, predict, optimise and control the behaviour of complex systems when the assumptions underlying conventional techniques are questioned. By Computational Intelligence we mean the synergetic integration of computational techniques for modelling (e.g. neural networks), for describing uncertainty (e.g. fuzzy logic), for optimising (e.g. evolutionary computation and ant colony optimisation), or for representing complex systems behaviour (e.g. swarm intelligence). The COMP2SYS programme aims at developing the knowledge and skills necessary to solve complex problems using the powerful methods and tools of computational intelligence. It is designed for young researchers from a wide range of disciplines, to enable them to apply these important technologies effectively within their own disciplines;

The training programme addresses the following complementary goals:
1.give the doctoral students the opportunity to embark in an innovative research direction in the field of computational intelligence;
2. Promote an interdisciplinary environment for the development and testing of novel effective computational techniques;
3. Train young researchers about the role of computational intelligence in understanding, modelling and treating complexity in real-world systems. The training programme will interest two profiles of young scientists: Grant holders: they will spend a research period of 3 years in IRIDIA and are expected to enrol as PhD students at the ULB. Young visiting scientists: they are PhD students of other universities who are pursuing their doctorate on a topic related to Computational Intelligence. Their permanence at IRIDIA will last for a period of time ranging from 3 to 12 months.
