Overview

Applied AI, engineering decision support, and cross-cutting methodological work that sits outside the three core research directions.

Key Questions

  • How can we bridge the gap between theoretical advances and real-world deployment?
  • What are the key challenges in applying computational intelligence to engineering problems with expensive evaluations?
  • How can AI systems support human decision-making in complex scenarios?

Our Contributions

  • Applied dynamic optimization techniques to engineering control problems
  • Developed surrogate-assisted approaches for expensive optimization
  • Spanned applied work, methodological reflection, and cross-domain optimization problems
