The main theme of the 2020 edition is ?Learning and<br \/>\nOptimization from Big Data?, therefore MESS 2020 wants to focus on (i)<br \/>\nLearning for Metaheuristics; (ii) Optimization in Machine Learning;<br \/>\nand (iii) how Optimization and Learning affect the Metaheuristics<br \/>\nmaking them relevant in handling Big Data.<\/p>\n<p>All participants will have plenty of opportunities for debate and work<br \/>\nwith leaders in the field, benefiting from direct interaction and<br \/>\ndiscussions in a stimulating environment. They will also have the<br \/>\npossibility to present their recently results and\/or their working in<br \/>\nprogress through oral or poster presentations, and interact with their<br \/>\nscientific peers, in a friendly and constructive environment.<\/p>\n<p>Participants will be delivered a certificate of attendance indicating<br \/>\nthe number of hours of lectures (36-40 hours of lectures).
