Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Evolutionary algorithms have become powerful computational tools for solving complex optimization, learning, and decision-making problems across diverse fields of artificial intelligence. Inspired by natural selection and biological evolution, these algorithms—including genetic algorithms, differential evolution, evolutionary strategies, genetic programming, and swarm-based methods—offer flexible frameworks capable of navigating high-dimensional, nonlinear, and multimodal search spaces. With the rapid advancement of machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and autonomous intelligent systems, evolutionary approaches are increasingly being integrated to enhance model performance, automate architecture design, optimize hyperparameters, and improve robustness in dynamic environments.

This Special Issue aims to bring together high-quality contributions that explore theoretical advances, algorithmic innovations, hybrid frameworks, and real-world applications of evolutionary algorithms in AI. Topics of interest include novel evolutionary methods, multi-objective optimization, reinforcement learning integrations, explainability and fairness in evolutionary AI, and domain-specific applications in engineering, robotics, finance, business, agriculture, computing, healthcare, and beyond. We welcome original research articles, reviews, and case studies that provide valuable insights and push the boundaries of evolutionary computation in artificial intelligence.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
