Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue comprises extended and expanded versions of Proceedings papers from the 7th International Conference on Harmony Search, Soft Computing and Applications (ICHSA 2022), to be held online at the Korea University in South Korea on 23rd-24th February 2022.
The registration fee has been waived for all the participants of ICHSA 2022, now available on the official conference website. We hope many scholars worldwide can attend the conference without worrying about abroad expenditures.
The 7th ICHSA (ICHSA 2022) consists of eight themes, from advances in harmony search and soft computing to artificial intelligence and various engineering applications. The paper submission due date is 1st December 2021 and, upon submission, the accepted and presented papers will be published in a SCOPUS-indexed Proceedings journal by Springer Nature.
The conference will mainly be comprised of keynote speeches, including speakers such as Xin-She Yang, Jagdish Chand Bansal, Swagatam Das, Seyedali Mirjalili and Jin Hee Yoon, offering insight into the innovative developments of soft computing, especially regarding their harmonization with the 4th industrial revolution technologies.
We expect many interesting presentations followed by in-depth discussions for all participants to share recent trends in harmony search and soft computing, as well as advanced computing technologies based on artificial intelligence and big data.
