The Scope of COSEAL

We connect researchers working on the configuration and selection of algorithms in the broadest sense. The mailing list, Discord server and workshops welcome all work related to this overarching goal. The scope of research topics COSEAL members are interested in includes, but is not limited to:

  • Algorithm selection
  • Algorithm configuration 
  • Algorithm portfolios
  • Performance predictions and empirical performance models
  • Bayesian optimization
  • Hyperparameter optimization
  • Automated machine learning (AutoML)
  • Neural architecture search
  • Meta-learning
  • Algorithm and parameter control
  • Explorative landscape analysis
  • Programming by optimization
  • Hyper-heuristics
