About the event

Research in optimization tends to focus on how to improve the design or configuration of their methods from a theoretical perspective or motivated by empirical studies of algorithm behavior on either specific individual problems or broader benchmarking problem suites. Our Dagstuhl Seminar takes a different perspective – we wish to improve the algorithm practitioner, arming them with a recipe book for improving any one of a broad class of optimization methods (black-box methods) on any given problem, particularly focusing on real-world problems.
